      PN-0066 - Papa Nui - Hellcat Hat - Frogskin Camo

      Named in honour of the F6F fighter plane, the "Hellcat” is a design that John Terosoriero (owner of Papa Nui) has been refining since the release of the original “Corsair” cap over a decade ago. Taking inspiration from 1940s-style aviator caps, this rugged hat is deep and balanced through the crown so as not to create a pinch at the top. The visor is 8cm (3 1/4”) long, with a wide, square shape taken directly from the USN caps of the era. Constructed from herringbone shelter cloth, the authentic Frogskin camo is based on the original M1942 pattern, notable as being the US military’s first attempt at disruptive colouration camouflage.

          @Ross If possible, can someone model this for me and or can you post a stock photo of someone wearing it?

          Doesn't have to be professional, quick and dirty will do 🙂
