Continued from Part 1

This was a more expensive cap than the last one. It’s made of a nice heavy tweed, with a pastel purple lining. It was made by the Eastern Cap Company. Whereas the last one was an eight panel cap, this is a flat cap.

The inside of the cap with lining. The lining is fairly standard. Round top.

And again without the lining. As you can see- seams are left unfinished. This pattern cap has 9 main components: top, band, brim, brim covering (2 pieces), lining (4 pieces) and all the hardware. Even though this is a more expensive and dressier cap, the brim, as with the last one, is made of heavy cardboard. This one uses a slightly more flexible stock.

The top panel unfolded.
