A-3 mechanics cap

[daddy-o]

Thinking of getting a cool cap to wear for most of the year. really fancy the A-3 mechanics cap from eastman ( a bit steep at nearly 35 pounds). Do any of you folks have this cap and would you post a pic or two ? Surfed around the net a bit and didnt find anyone else making a copy, except MASH in Japan who also make a great denim version ( BR made one too years ago). Unfortunately they never replied to my email. Does anyone know of any other repros being made out there ?

I have the OD HBT A-3 and also the denim USN (experimental) cap.
But sorry, I can't photograph them right now...

They are both really good- go for the Eastman A-3, it's good, even the cloth is excellent.

Yeah looks like it has to be the Eastman then.

I have compared the pictures on the eastman website with my original A-3 and they look accurate.
