Rare Repurposed ERDL Camo Hat - Genuine US Surplus Fabric - Vietnam Find
$39.99
This is a post-Vietnam War era cap sourced directly from a market in Vietnam. These hats are unique historical pieces, "repurposed" using genuine, unissued, or captured stockpiles of US ERDL and South Vietnamese (ARVN) "leaf" pattern camouflage material left over after 1975.
Unlike modern mass-market reproductions, this hat is constructed from original 1960s/70s era fabric. It represents a specific period of post-war history where high-quality military surplus fabric was utilized by local workshops for commercial sale or secondary issue.
Product Details* Material: Authentic vintage ripstop/poplin. This is the original era-specific weave with the characteristic ink-bleed and color profile of genuine ERDL. * Origin: Sourced in Vietnam; made from genuine US military fabric stocks. * Pattern: Classic ERDL "Leaf" pattern (Small scale). * Condition:Excellent / New Old Stock. This item is in new condition with no fading, tears, or signs of heavy wear. Collector’s Note
Because these were made from original rolls of fabric rather than modern printed polyester, they carry the weight and durability of genuine period gear. This is an ideal piece for militaria collectors, vintage enthusiasts, or anyone looking for an authentic piece of "theater-made" style history.
