Prince Henry Hat by Hammaburg
A historic peaked cap! In the time of the Kaiser, the Admiral of the Fleet, Albert Wilhelm Heinrich, Prince of Prussia (1862-1929) wore this type of captains hat, and this style later found a new dignified wearer in Helmut Schmidt. From this time on they were also known as Schmidt caps. The striking features such as the oak leaf border around the high bridge and the peak edge, as well as the doubled silk cord with decorative buttons, make this cap particularly authentic and unique. A great alternative to an Elbe sailor hat. With reinforced cap upper, satin lining and faux leather sweatband.
