Legion MACIEJOWKA Blue Wool Cloth Leather Cap Historical Hat

It’s a traditional cap with essentially mid-east European origin. At first it was considered as peasants head wear, then it became very popular when Pilsudski’s Legions chose Maciejowka hat as a standard uniform head wear. Although Maciejowka is essentially a Polish cap, strictly bound to Polish history and its dramatic moments, there are also some similar patterns throughout the world (its name is just different). This model of cap is also known as fiddler’s cap, Greek style fisherman’s cap or Breton cap.
