Nothing so distinguishes the officer as ... Uniform caps. That gives it solidity man in the eyes of others. Headgear - a key element of any outfit.

Few people know, but in the year 2011, in September, the cap was celebrating his birthday: she was two hundred years.

The word "cap" comes from "forager". This is the post that once existed in the tsarist army. Foragers were involved in the supply of parts: harvested food (fodder), fuel and building materials. It was very difficult to carry out the duties associated with this business in hats, and forage shoes came in their place. They looked completely different than modern ones. With the present cap for forage hats, only the material (cloth) and the name are common. These hats resembled a cap with a fold in half: something akin to a modern cap. Officers, for the difference, used a visor. Elements of a modern cap cap (band and thong) were put into use in November 1811. For more than a hundred years, ordinary soldiers wore such a cape - until the beginning of the 1914 war. She remained in the Navy, only the ribbon was added.

The Red Army's cap has acquired a great honor. By the time she began to look just like a "pancake", apparently to emphasize the worker-peasant origin.

The Soviet-style aviation cap is now easy to find on the Internet, but not all of the offered copies are genuine. In order not to buy a fake, it is imperative to seek advice from knowledgeable people. Since Soviet times, two main types of caps have survived - the usual and the so-called "Sevastopol". The latter are highly valued by the aviators themselves because of the cut: they are small and neat. And large "airfields" with a wide bend in the crown (the departure of the cap) have always been unofficially despised: it was believed that only the parquet-rear army liked to show them off.

At the center of the band air cap decorated with so-called badge: it is the image of aviation emblems - the most diverse (most prized embroidered). On Tuglie, on top of the coat of arms of aviation, can be placed a small emblem of aviation: it has the shape of the deployed wings, crossed with a two-bladed propeller. About the origin of Soviet aviation cap indicates located over the wings pentagonal star.

A cap adorns the cap above the visor: a golden braid for officers and a simple leather strap for everyone else. The so-called “oaks” (or glide paths), depicting a wreath of leaves, are sometimes attached to the visor along the outer edge. 

Military caps get together with the form, but not everyone wants to wear what they were given. Sew to order: in the old days, and now. To do this, there are specialized workshops furazhechnye. By the way, where the stitching - also need to know. They say that in Moscow, for example, do not know how to do: sew ever ridden up to the sky and jump-la-African dictator.
