Quick opinion, would pass on this one....grommets etc.

Agree on that plus I'ver never seen a trop cap where the underside of visor has no stitching. Good caps always have 1 or 2 rows. I think the insignia is repro too.

Not good

Repo cap. Hard to see from my IPhone but is that 1st pattern cockade on this cap?

As I already said through our mutual friend - give it a miss as it's a reproduction.

On second look. Need better pics of the insignia to be sure if the eagle is a fake which was also my 1st thought & if that cockade is original or not ? Perhaps this cap is another Felina
