British Army Khaki Balmoral Size 58

The British Army Khaki Balmoral Size 58 is a traditional military headdress associated with regiments of the British Army, particularly those with Scottish heritage. This item features the classic round, flat-topped design characteristic of the Balmoral—a soft wool cap with a khaki finish, which became standard issue for field and parade use in the 20th century. The Balmoral typically includes a toorie (pom-pom) on top, a woven hatband, and black ribbon tails at the rear. This example is designated as size 58, corresponding to a head circumference of approximately 58 centimeters. Khaki Balmorals were widely adopted during periods where camouflage and practical field attire were prioritized. They were often worn in conjunction with battledress and other khaki uniform components. This style remains an iconic element of Scottish military regalia and continues to be used in both ceremonial and practical roles within certain regiments.
