Rhodesian "Keko" Cap

One of the most instantly recognizable Rhodesian military items is the combat cap. It goes by many nicknames ranging from “keko cap” to “cunt cap” but for the purpose of this listing lets go with Keko Cap as it’s a little cleaner of a name. These caps have a built in neck flap to protect the user from the hot African sun. It can be worn at two levels, half folded (where the user unbuttons it from the top of the hat) or full deployed where the user then unsnaps it to extend it to its full length. This example is in very good condition with no noted defects aside from the soldier modification mentioned below.

The size tag is missing inside, our best estimate is a 54-55cm size. Do note that this hat has actually been modified by a soldier at some point to fit him better. They cut behind the brim and sewed in some elastic fabric for a better fit.
