Guinea-Bissau Field Cap
This is a field cap issued to the army of Guinea-Bissau in West Africa, printed in a green jungle digital camouflage. It is a short-brimmed, patrol-style cap that shades the eyes and keeps sun off the head during long days outdoors. Collectors of African military headgear, reenactors and anyone who wants a piece of genuine issue kit from a lesser-seen army will find it worth adding to the shelf or the field bag.
Features
- Jungle Digital Camouflage — A pixelated pattern of bright green, dark brown, black and tan breaks up the outline of the head against dense vegetation.
- Cotton And Polyester Blend — Cotton keeps the cap breathable against the skin, while polyester adds strength and helps the fabric hold its shape.
- Patrol-Style Crown — The crown sits fairly flat and upright above a stitched band, the classic military field cap profile rather than a rounded baseball shape.
- Multi-Stitched Brim — Several parallel rows of stitching run across the short brim to stiffen it so it keeps its curve.
- Metal Ventilation Eyelets — Two metal eyelets on each side let heat escape from inside the crown in hot, humid weather.
- Low-Profile Design — No buttons, badges or straps on the exterior, so the cap packs flat and sits cleanly under a hood or headset.
- Genuine Army Issue — This cap comes from Guinea-Bissau Army stock, not a commercial copy made for the fashion market.
Genuine Army Issue
Guinea-Bissau is a small coastal nation in West Africa, and its military kit rarely turns up outside the country, which makes this cap an uncommon find for collectors of African uniforms. It follows the familiar field cap layout: a panelled crown joined to a stitched headband, a short reinforced brim and vent eyelets at the sides. The cotton and polyester fabric matches the jungle camouflage worn on the army's field uniforms, so it pairs naturally with an issue shirt or trousers in the same pattern.

Immaculate Patrol CapUsed it for some backyard target practice and it worked fine for keeping sweat out of my eyes in the heat. The jungle pattern is pretty convincing for a surplus piece.
