Buzz Rickson’s – A-4 Mechanic Wool Cap Olive
The A-4 cap was originally issued to the unsung heroes of aviation—the mechanics who kept fighter planes battle-ready in unforgiving conditions. Without their precision and endurance, the accomplishments of wartime pilots would never have been possible.
Designed to protect these crews from the bitter cold on airfields, the A-4 features six connected cutouts that form a perfectly rounded, close-fitting crown. The result is a cap that hugs the head comfortably while offering reliable insulation.
Made in Japan from 100% wool, this Olive A-4 cap is a faithful reproduction of the original military issue, carrying forward the rugged utility and understated style that defined the era.
