digi-shots Posted January 7, 2017 Share #1 Posted January 7, 2017 Here's a rip-stock ERDL hat that I picked up a while ago. Round top, not 8 point like my USMC cap. It's unlined, no tags or markings. Can anyone tell if this is one of the current knock-off or perhaps vintage VN era. Thanks for looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VMI88 Posted January 7, 2017 Share #2 Posted January 7, 2017 The material looks real - these were often made up by local tailors or commercially for sale in Army-Navy stores. They were often purchased and used by soldiers. Yours is probably a commercially made cap based on the construction. Here's a similar one I picked up; it has cat's eyes sewn on the back so it was obviously used by a soldier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
