Description
From the beaches of Normandy to the hills of Korea, the Cap Comforter became a trademark of British soldiers operating in challenging climates. Designed to be adaptable, it could be stuffed into a pocket when not in use or quickly converted into headgear for warmth and concealment. The soft, stretchy wool makes it comfortable against the skin, while the knit weave traps heat even in damp, blustery conditions.
Whether you’re assembling a British field kit, reenacting wartime scenarios, or just want a no-nonsense piece of vintage winter wear, this Cap Comforter delivers history and functionality in equal measure.
