Born from a mix of vintage sensibilities, practical need & the sort of madness it takes to want to produce anything the right way - Papa Nui makes some damn fine hats. Manufactured in Japan with the highest attention to detail and quality, with personality and a deliberate story behind each piece. The Battalion Work Hat is a twist on the M1937 Work Hat, this time rendered in a brown frogskin HBT rather than an indigo denim — a cheeky what-if riff on an all-time favorite. Comfortable and unstructured, it's a great travel cap, with a classic short-brim bucket hat silhouette and an easy, packable design. It's made from a 100% cotton herringbone twill, with cotton tape inside reinforcing the seams. Custom labels and an embroidered Hino Maru patch can be found inside, the marks of a genuine Papa Nui Hat. 100% cotton Brown frogskin HBT body 6 panel design Short bucket hat brim Cotton tape reinforced internal seams Soft brim Medium crown Custom woven labels Embroidered Hino Maru internal patch Made in Japan
