Japanese Cap Opinions Wanted

Typical nice example of the Shanghai made caps, this one dated 1944. These are relatively common to find and should not be too expensive. Some years ago a large cache of these Shanghai made caps was discovered, all unissued.
Cannot estimate just how many, but it was substantial.
By 1943, the entire Japanese Navy switched to the green uniforms. The old SNLF, as it was termed, became defunct by 1944 as more and more Naval personnel became shore based and were pressed into land operations alongside the Army.
