The design is based on hats that were popular in the 1920s and 1930s.

Originally, this kind of hat is generally called a hunting cap in English, but...

In Japan, when we think of hunting caps, we tend to think of a single piece of fabric. So Dry Bones has named this eight-piece hat "casquette" (meaning cap in English), after the hat that appeared in an old French movie.

The fabric used is chino cloth, which was used in the US for military wear in the 1940s and 1950s. It's a fun material that gets tighter with use and changes over time as it becomes more cottony.

Since it is made in a single piece, it is beautifully sewn with the assumption that the inside will be visible.

The piping is made of cotton bias tape, which is designed to apply pressure at an angle, so it is effective at maintaining a shape that wraps around the head.

The inside of the brim is made of the same material as the hat and does not have any interlining, so it will become distorted with use. Unlike new hats, it does not use a plastic interlining, so there is no need to worry about it cracking easily.

The slider uses a stretchy soccer tuck that gently wraps around your head.

The stitching is the same color as the cap, following the very popular work cap style.

Having one is a great idea as it can be combined with a variety of styles.
