The A.G. Watch Cap is our modern, updated, and upgraded take on the classic USN Issue Watch Cap. Expertly knit in California, USA from "A Grade" easy care, merino wool. Available in Syth Black. #agwatchcap Our watch caps are directly inspired from this style of cold weather headwear issued to USN Sailors, Seabees, Merchant Marines and other service members during WWII, and in the decades to follow. The PDW A.G. Watch Cap is made in a premium grade, soft, machine wash & dry, 100% merino sourced from a leading EU based supplier. Unlike other knit beanies being made in the USA today, which are simply tubes sewn closed at one end. Ours are a true fully shaped and knitted process produced on state of the art, computer controlled knitting machines based in California.
While the original USN issue stands on its own we created our updated and upgraded interpretation, that is a highly versatile 2+ season weight, superior comfort, easy care, and possess that timeless, and classic appearance. The A.G. Watch Cap is the high standard in American made beanies and will be a goto staple in anyone's wardrobe during cooler to cold months.

Lucy I. ★★★★★

I've worn this through two cold snaps already and the merino wool genuinely keeps my ears warm without the itch I usually get from cheaper knits. It's light enough to stuff in a coat pocket but still feels substantial.

Nicholas D. ★★★★★

This knit is tighter and more structured than my old navy surplus one, holds its shape on a windy walk without stretching out. The merino is soft enough to wear all day without itching, and it’s already become my go-to for chilly mornings.

Ellie ★★★★★

Wore it on a cold, windy commute and my ears stayed warm the whole way without any itch, which surprised me since wool usually drives me crazy. You can tell it's knit properly here in California, and the Syth Black color looks even better in person.
