Medical/Vet Visor

[ekclete]

Here are some pics of another one of my visors. This time I had a buddy of mine take the pictures since I am pretty bad with a camera. Plus he uses much better camera then I own. Comments from everyone welcome.

Clete,

Is the sweatband leather or cloth?

Sweatband is leather. If the future I can get more detailed shots if anyone would like them (for any of my visors actually) but my friend who takes these nicer ones lives a bit away from me so it just would take some time. Thanks Clete

Thanks Clete!

It is a nice cap.
I suppose that the liner inside is silk/silk-like.

That is exactly what the liner is like. Not quite silk but very nice quality fabric nonetheless. Hard to see in the picture but it has a nice wear pattern on the inside, smells like a musty attic and just has a nice feel about it. I like it. Certainly not the most glamorous visor but still nice to have. Thanks Clete

Clete,

Looks nice. As a medical-related G.O. service cap, however, I believe it should have the gold or silver double cord chin strap to be 100% accurate - not the leather one.

Could be Slava but I have had several over the years with this type of leather band instead of gold/silver chin straps. But only on daily wear visors and never on dress models. This hat has all the characteristics of a general's visor so if the chin cord is the only issue then I can live with that.

I was under the impression they could come that way with the leather chin strap being a bit more rare if you will. Now I need to find those pictures I had of generals with this sort of strap. I know I have seen it in use before but I need to find those pics. When I do I will post them or if anyone else has any fotos of this style chin strap please post them. Thanks Clete
