How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: use this cap for summer duty shifts, daytime patrols, and non-combat urban assignments where recognisability and comfort are required. It replaces the beret for hot-weather service and pairs with the official Polo Esercito.

In most cases, the cap is worn during Strade Sicure duties, fixed posts, site guards and routine transfers in urban or semi-urban areas. It is sized with an adjustable velcro strap to fit most head circumferences and works with common earsets and radio equipment that do not interfere with the visor.

Care and notes

Follow basic textile care to keep the cap presentable and extend service life.

• Wash by hand or machine on a gentle cycle at max 30°C with mild detergent.
• Air dry away from direct heat; avoid ironing directly over the embroidery.
• Store in a dry place and avoid prolonged compression of the visor to keep shape.
• Sale reserved to serving personnel; purchase requires document verification (service ID or, for collectors, the required prefectoral license).
