Two Desert caps....for Kids,or Hobbits ?????????

Hi Guys.

I thought I would show these caps,which are a bit of an oddity....these caps are TINY,clearly the Choc chip style cap is a commercial,that's not unusual ...but the size is freaky small.

The 3 colour is pretty much the same.....


First up. The choc chip...

The label...FAKE!!!!

10 inches !!!!!!!

2 inches in Height!!!!!

3 Colour ...

Again approx 10 inches...

If any Hobbit's are missing their caps,please give me a call

Well,really small size are often for children because it exists uniforms to do "as father". There's some soldiers' childs who wear "their own uniform" when their father come back, during 'welcome home' ceremony. I've one DCU uniform for a child I received from my friend in USA.

Here's two pictures with child in ACU uniform (as their father)

That almost has to be labeled wrong -- I wear a size 7 1/4 hat and it doesn't seem anywhere near that small, and it's taller than 2 inches.

You definitely come across some interesting bits of kit, Gary!

Thanks P-E,the kids sizing makes sense,these caps are very well made, and are not like the sort of Chinese copies I've seen around.

Maybe these are US kids caps, for wearing for their fathers homecoming,that's kind of cool,as they are unusual...which I like

Thanks again Mate.

Yeah Mate,these caps are nowhere near a size 7,way too small,I guess they would fit the average 8-10 year old's head.

I must admit I was hoping they would turn out to be Iraqi/Saudi issue ( for the small headed soldiers of course).But if they are Kids caps that's still cool, I will give them to my niece and nephew

I do tend to pick some unusual kit...thing is it's all worthless, I certainly won't be retiring early, on my current collections market value
