1. Hats

Enlisted / Non-Commissioned Officer

Inspired by the Bulgarian M-43 Pattern Tank Crew Field Cap

Standard issue enlisted and non-commissioned officer head wear outside of front-line infantry engagements consists of a field cap, with a downward facing brim with a two to three inch protrusion, with the ends of the brim meeting the rest of the cap at a distance roughly that of the temples of the wearer. Cloth straps provide rigidity as well as a means of tightening or loosening the cap, the straps are closed into place with buttons put through button holes which are placed specific to the wearer to provide a proper fit. Placed above the cloth straps, is a rank pin indicating the wearer's rank.

Officer

Inspired by traditional military peaked caps / visor hats

Lorath Self Defense Force officers, usually aboard ship or in rear-line positions, often wear peaked caps. There is a degree of individuality present in the cap style, some with drastic peaks, others with a more subdued appearance, depending on the officer, and often, the position of the officer. Standard practice indicates that caps are decorated with rank, a band around the cap indicating caste or origin by color, and a pin indicating the division of the LSDF in which the wearer is an officer.

Fyunnen Caste Hat Option

Inspired by the Scottish Glengarry Bonnet

Unlike the other hats available to the Lorath Self Defense Force, the hats which the Lorath Fyunnen have available to them are a ceremonial garment. Fyunnen head wear consists of an almost garrison-cap style cloth cap, with a red colored band with the remainder of the hat in black. Various decorations such as plumage, pins, tassels, and other such items may be affixed to the hat at the wearer's discretion.
