Belgian Army Visor Cap – Post-Liberation / Early Postwar – Royal Crown Badge

Original Belgian Army visor cap dating to the immediate post-liberation / early post-WWII period, likely manufactured shortly after the liberation of Belgium in 1944–45.

The cap is constructed in classic Belgian khaki wool with a brown leather chinstrap and retains its original Belgian national cockade together with the royal crown insignia to the front. The overall appearance strongly reflects transitional Belgian military headgear used during the rebuilding of the Belgian armed forces following occupation.

The interior retains its original diamond-shaped retailer/manufacturer label from:

“Vêtements Civils et Militaires Van Den Haute-Rabou”
86 Rue de Diest, Louvain (Leuven)

Condition remains very good overall, showing only light age and storage wear. The cap retains an attractive shape and displays very well.

A desirable and increasingly harder-to-find piece of early postwar Belgian military headgear, closely linked to the liberation and reconstruction period of the Belgian Army.
