The Khaki Military-Style Balmoral harkens back to a proud tradition of service and bravery. We drew our style inspiration from the Khaki Balmoral, a form of military headdress. It was introduced in 1915 for wear by Scottish infantrymen serving in the trenches of the Western Front during World War I. To this day, certain British and Canadian military units, as well as the Royal Regiment of Scotland, continue to wear this style of “bonnet,” as it’s sometimes called. “Khaki” refers to this hat’s traditional tan color, although it can range in color from light brown to olive drab. The Celtic Croft take on the classic is toward a green.

Very pleased. It’s well made, good color. The note about them running a little small was very helpful. I went up a size after reading that and it fits very well. Thank you.

Besides being American born with Scottish roots, I’m a big WWI, WWII buff and have always wanted a Scotch bonnet of that style/era. This bonnet is extremely nice, and well fitted. I really like the color and of course will wear it on a regular basis with regular attire. It would also do well for a 1750s Rogers Rangers bonnet. Thanks again for the great service and product!

My military-style Balmoral is outstanding in style, fit, construction and overall quality. Kilts-n-Stuff had it in my mailbox in a few short days in perfect condition. I can’t wait for cooler weather to wear it.

I accidentally bought a 7 3/8 instead of a 7 1/4, the fit was perfect so I would say that they might run a tad small. This is a great cap.

Been buying from the Croft for over half a decade now, starting with my first kilt – this, like all other merchandise they offer, is accurately described, durable, and well priced – holds a clan badge and hackles like a dream.

This is the second of these excellent balmorals that I have ordered. I ordered this one a size larger as my wife wants me to let my hair grow instead of keeping it cut off. Keep up the good work.
