Vintage Soviet Pilotka Cap USSR RKKA M1935

This is an original Soviet RKKA Pilotka side cap based on the famous M1935 pattern used by Red Army command personnel during the pre-war and WWII era. The cap is made in traditional khaki wool-blend fabric and finished with bright red piping and the classic Soviet front star configuration.

The Pilotka became one of the most recognizable Soviet military headwear designs thanks to its lightweight folding construction, compact field shape, and iconic silhouette associated with officers of the Red Army throughout the 1930s and 1940s.

Authentic early RKKA side caps are highly collectible among militaria enthusiasts, WWII historians, museum collections, theater costume departments, film productions, reenactors, and collectors of rare Eastern European military uniforms.

Its clean military profile and atmospheric vintage appearance make it an excellent display piece for historical collections, military exhibitions, cinema wardrobe styling, reenactment events, and vintage military photography projects.

This vintage collectible item may show light signs of storage, age, or historical handling consistent with authentic military pieces several decades old.
