Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 Way back when I was a kid my dad had a " base ball cap" with a double crown. He used it for many years as his hunting hat and it finally got so worn out he scrapped it while I was over seas. It turned inside out some way and one side was the color of the bill of the hat and the other was red. Have any of you ever seen one and do any of you know where I could find one in a 7 3/4 size?

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted February 19, 2021 Author Share Posted February 19, 2021 Nope, that ain't it. IIRC the top rear half of the crown would fold over and back. Inside was red so when you folded it forward both inside red parts would be exposed, but the bill wasn't covered. It remained tan. When the top was folded back the entire hat showed tan and the red was out of sight.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dad had one just like that in the early 60’s. It was normally carhart tan and turned inside out to red. Have no idea where he got it. I don’t know whatever happened to it nor have I ever seen another one. Just reading your post brought back some good memories of my dad and I hunting. Thanks much!

Thanks. I can likely dye it darker. I'd really like to get something without some merchant's logo on it. They don't pay me to shill their product.

Logos on display on every piece of apparel no matter where it’s from. Flippin’ annoying. Here is an interesting hat from Denmark. https://www.pro-outdoor.dk/shop/harkila-pro-hunter-1063196p.html#gallery-1?CookieConsentChanged=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
