I don't like the exaggerated peaks. They remind me of the archetypal South American dictators seen in movies.

The Indonesian Police love that style too.....

As I understand, the word "peaked" in peaked cap refers to the visor, not the crown, at least in British parlance, anyway, and which is where the term originated.

Nevertheless, I like Stonemint's use of the term here.

Was a nice cap and sold for 365EU.

I agree, our friends in the UK use "peak" for the vulkanfiber bill, we use visor here in the states (and save "peak" for the highest point on the cap).

Does lead to confusion, though!

I see traces of an Edelweiss located between the eagle and the cockade ?
That could explain the high peak form ?

‘England and America are two countries separated by the same language.'
