Product description

This Swiss cap is a simple piece of headwear without anything that stands out, apart from the Swiss Alpenflage camo pattern. It's a pleasure to look at but certainly not a laughing matter.

A very simple combat cap is an accessory that soldiers love and officers hate. There are no parade inspections in the field, so you can forget about spit-shine on your boots and carefully tied beret cords. Just wear one of these and you're good for most seasons. Folds small for transport. Elastic band in the back.

Legend says, the developer of the last camo pattern of the nazis went low and took his work to Switzerland. The idea of this 'shroomy pattern is to conceal the wearer also from viewing through night vision devices. The pattern was adopted almost as-is and developed over the years. The first iteration was called the TAZ57 but it's most commonly known as the Alpenflage. The pattern includes black, light green, red, dark green, and brown.

Size info

The sizes Small, Medium, and Large are ever so slightly smaller than usual. Centimeters were fitted by us so they are true. Here's a conversion table for these caps specifically.

Size Metric Imperial
Small 55 cm 6 7/8"
Medium 57 cm 7 1/8"
Large 59 cm 7 3/8"

Swiss army surplus

Used and ugly for sure, but the situation wasn't much different when these were new. Generally, these are in a good shape.

I have a small head 56 cm. Got a M and I have to steam and strech it to make it fit. Still it is a fun thing to shield my hair after a few days in the field.

I gave it a five star rating, but in all honesty, I am only neutral about it...
