This is the second cap I have bought for our group, for the price they are the best value cap on the market.
As more members join I shall be pointing them in this direction.
There are more expensive products out there but as we are mounted they will be bitten, beaten and probably covered in horse spit so a museum replica at almost twice the price may be impractical.

Excellent reproduction of the original. Has option of either the pattern 1902, or P-1908 chinstrap.

It's a great reproduction and fits well. I thought the leather strap would be wider but all in all, I'm very pleased.

A fine product somewhat improved over his caps from just 2 - 3 years ago - but the chin strap still needs to be improved.
Fast shipment as usual.

Mine just arrived two days ago into the UK a delivery time of only 3 days from UAE. Very good quality and good sizing, not so sure about the chin strap I was expecting something more substantial. But never having held an original I have nothing to compare with.
very nice and fast delivery

i pity the boys who were supposed to wear this in August 1914!

Very fast shipping. The cap fit perfectly and it is very well made. However the "new" chin strap is absolute garbage. See earlier comments about it. I also noticed the cap is missing a line of stiching that holds the side pieces against the stiff band inside. Lastly the image shows the cap with air vent grommets however on arrival there were none present and I had to put those on myself.
Im still pleased with it but it could be better.

Hat 2
(2011-03-05)
I bought a second one of these hats about a year ago. Because of some sizing issues on a previous hat I asked and was told "the hats are labelled accurately". I ordered a 7 1/4. It was marked as such but was actually 7 1/8. The chinstrap buttons were in the wrong spot and the chin strap was totally inaccurate. After resewing the buttons and replacing the strap the hat looked pretty good. I managed to sell the hat to a buddy with a smaller head so things worked out. I did complain and received an apology but this would be unnecessary if things were done right the first time. I am hesitant about ordering a third hat.

Bought one several years ago. At that time they were listed as "sized small". I ordered a 7 3/8 to fit my 7 1/4 head. Hat I got was actually 7 1/2 +. Kind of annoyed but as it went on a display dummy it didn''t matter.

Great cap. Are you going to re-stock the UK officer Dress cap #201033000 and the RAF officers peaked cap #201630000? I want them both also!

Great cap! Chinstrap that came with it needed cutting to fit and I had to put on brown shoe polish on it. Otherwise quick shipping and quality repo. Worth every dollar.

SD CAP

Great hat with only minor issues. Front peak too flimsy and weak and dont see it lasting, should offer a choice of side buttons (some were just small brown ones)chin strap should be made to fit not need to be cut and coloured. No trouble putting badge on...the trick is to DRILL the holes first.

Nice bit of kit. As mentioned on previous reviews it did need some minor work (Buttons sewn the correct way up, leather strap needed polish/colour and the length adjusted by trimming a piece off). One thing i must mention, is if you want to shape the hat by putting in water and brushing DON'T, the colour in the lining runs and gets in the seams of the hat when its dry!

Very good reproduction, but the stiffner is a little bit thick. It made it difficult to attach a badge. Apart from that, nothing wrong.

Excellent copy, chinstrap is a bit off but other than that I have no complaints
Nice, but had problems
(2009-07-11)
I love the hat, but had the same problems that Ian from Massachusetts had.
The chin strap is totally wrong in the way he said, but also is completely raw leather. I had to buy some brown shoe dye to get it the right colour. I also had to shorten the short bit to get it to sit correctly on the hat. It looks okay, but is still wrong in the way it has to be put on. Ian was 100% right on how it should be attached.
I also couldn't put a cap badge on because of the way the stiffener stitching has been done. I had to unstitch it and restitch it.

The peak of the cap was mis-shapen on arrival, that is to say it was badly bent. There was no damage to the packaging so I must assume that it was bent prior to dispatch. I suggest better quality control measures.
Otherwise it is acceptable.

Much Improved but needs more work
(2009-05-30)
The new (2008?) version of the SD cap is much better than the older version and well worth the cost. However, it could do with some minor details fixing in order to make it a museum grade reproduction:
1. The chinstrap is still completely wrong. I had to replace it with an original from my collection. Originals are made from two ten inch long pieces of half-inch wide chestnut-coloured leather which are attached together with two identical buckles similar to the larger buckle on yours. You have one of your straps doubling back on itself, whereas an original strap does not do this - instead each strap passes through the first buckle of the other and attaches at its end to the other strap. The end result is a strap that sits perfectly with no bumps at the buckles and no gap at the buckle where you can see through to the cap''s crown.
2. the leather interior of the sweatband is sewn onto the cap leaving an unhemmed edge. This is incorrect. Originals have a hemmed sweatband made from thinner material.
3. the interior of the visor seems to still be made of low quality cardboard. On the earlier version I bought this warped when it got damp, making the cap look terrible. This needs to be addressed so that the cap can be worn in wet weather
4. the stitching of the stiffener that keeps the top of the crown up at the front makes it impossible to attach a cap badge. I basically had to remove the whole stiffener and replace it just in order to attach my cap badge to the cap. There should be nothing preventing the use of a cap badge with these caps.
All-in-all it''s a really good reproduction, but I think people would be willing to pay $10-$20 more for something that didn''t need alteration after purchase.

Delivery was very quick! WPG uniforms are made of a thicker, more durable wool and the same can be said of the cap. I will always recommend WPG.
