The A-4 knit cap was used by ground crew of the Army Air Force during WWII. Cold winter days on the airfield whilst arming a B-17 bomber for a mission, called for such a cap.

 The A-4 is a simple plain weave knit hat, made from an Olive green, 100% wool yarn.

They were used by aircraft mechanics and armourers throughout WWII, when conditions were too cool for the A-3!

The Eastman A-4 is another great accessory item. Our 100% wool yarn is matched to the original in quality and colour, and due to its extra fine quality it's not itchy! .

One size fits all.

In AAF, a star is Air pilot crew, but must not forget Mechanics crew who support on the ground. In extreme cold winter at the Europe battle line, D-1 Jacket and A-4 Cap were supplied for protect them who worked for flying a fighter as B-17 and P-47 in best condition. Originally A-4 Cap was supplied for Ground Crew, however some Air pilot crew love to use this Cap.
