The product quality is so nice

Made of dark indigo-blue wool broadcloth with light-colored (likely branch or regimental) piping around the crown and body.
Features a low crown with a pronounced forward tilt, typical of late-war Union kepis.
Black leather peak (visor) with visible age wear; bound edge construction.
Lower band made of darker wool, fitted with small brass eagle side buttons for the chinstrap.
- Internal stiffening originally provided shape but has softened over time, giving the cap its slouching profile.
