Railway Conductors Hat

The is railway conductors hat.

What makes this a conductor hat rather than just a military peaked cap is the combination extra height of the crown combined with the peak pointed downwards.

The hat probably would have a had badge on the front with the name of the railway the owner or network it belonged to. 

The pointing down peak perhaps was designed to intimidate or avoid eye contact while checking tickets, pure guesses on my part, similarly pointed down peaked are typical to military drill sergeants.

Quilted Cap

This quilted peaked hat is little unusual as the crown sit quite high, like a baseball for someone with a lot of hair. 

I found this hat in a Sue Ryder charity shop in their retro section, it was with sited female apparel but to me it looks pretty unisex.

The hat sits comfortably and holds its shape well.

Bloodied Bandages

This set of bandages is actually a hat.

What could be better than a blood soak hat made of bandages to instantly make you look like you just survived a battle head injury.

The bandages have been sewn onto simple cotton skull cap and fake blood applied.

This gets a lot of use.

Knitted Hood

When it comes to hoods most are made of fabric sewn together, this one, however, has been knitted to shape.

It's not lined but very comfortable wear, if a little out of place in most environments it doesn't work as regular street wear or for historical reenactment, it just about fits in a fantasy setting or maybe on wacky snowboarders head.

It's a good hood

Knit one now and become a trendsetter.

Nice long Liripipe for the hoods tail
