    Here's mine which I got from the Late John Egger many years ago.

    The chinstrap is the same colour as the rest of the cap, the different coloured material on mine is in the sweatband.

    There is no reinforcing stitching in the bill but it is quite solid. There would be several layers of material in the bill as it feels quite thick.

    Insignia is correctly sewn through the liner sweatband.

    Regards

    Russ

                Cap stitching:

                フルノ

                Kure, Furuno/ 132

                Furuno kanji would be:
                古野
