Finnish armyGenuine M65 Field Cap. Finland Military Issue Surplus Wool hat

Comfortable fit great material.

Seriously, this hat is really nice. I was a little worried when I looked at the price point, but glad to be surprised. Definitely more of a fall weather hat than a winter weather hat, so be advised on that if you mean to used it outdoors.For my purposes though is great. Might replace the plastic buttons with some brass ones, but for the cost this hat is absolutely worth it.

This is a good hat. The stitching is tight and regular. The fabric is a summer weight cloth. However, in my case the hat size chart feature did not function. I ordered the same size as another I have. This M65 was far too big! I tossed it into the wash on hot. It fits! I moved the button locations for a more snug appeaance. Buy it.

First thing I noticed, was the smell of the leather. It smells so GENUINE. That's what makes think this is the real deal, right here. I had to buy another one. But, the thing is, they aren't exactly the same, when comparing the two caps I bought, they both have their slight "imperfections," which is why I can't exactly give 5 stars, but the hats are still GREAT!! The sizing is pretty accurate too. I just wished the packaging was a bit better, because all they did was just stuff it in a plastic bag, somewhat squishing the cap. Also the brim is quite moldable which is interesting, but firm and will hold the shape you bend it to.The flaps, are thin. They won't keep you as warm as say, a ushanka. However, will protect against wind & a light drizzle.

The is a very good quality hat. Stitching is very good. Lined with a leather band. The cap has a quality finish look because of high quality materials. If only I could ski!

I ordered a size large and got a 59 cm cap, but the snug fit is fine. More of a dress cap than a full proper field cap, and you do need a Finnish cockade to complete the hat that you can get off Ebay. Not really a ww2 or cold war variant, mine was made in what I assume was 1991 so if you were expecting an original thick wool as seen in the winter war and continuation war, this is not it Expect the quality to be on par with soviet or west german surplus items of the period, which for me, is perfect. It is comfortable to wear for long periods of time in most temperate environments and a good replacement for any regular baseball cap.

Great fit (large) Very comfortable, unlike most American ball caps. The design is molded to fit a human head. My large was size 58cm (7 3/8 USA) and was right on. Well crafted, works for cold weather but not for artic zones.

Ordered a size large, got an EU size 57, way too small for me and smaller than what other people have reported receiving as larges. Hat seems nice, I like the leather band. A bit of the stitching is loose inside the headband, but exterior is in good shape.Unfortunately bought as gift, so already past the return window. Straight to goodwill with this one.
