Canadian Army Bush Dress Captain’s Slip-Ons Insignia Pair

The Canadian Army Bush Dress Captain’s Slip-Ons Insignia Pair consists of two matching rank insignia designed for attachment to the shoulder straps of bush dress uniforms. Used by commissioned officers holding the rank of captain, these slip-ons feature the distinctive three pip insignia, identifying the wearer’s rank within the Canadian Army. Typically constructed from durable fabric in appropriate military colors, the slip-ons are designed to slide onto the epaulets of the bush dress—a lightweight uniform intended for use in temperate or tropical climates. This style of insignia was commonly worn from the post-Second World War period through to later decades, reflecting standard Canadian Army practices for distinguishing rank in the field. The pair is representative of official issue items and displays the characteristic materials and construction methods of Canadian military uniform accoutrements. Suitable for collectors, historians, or those studying military dress regulations and insignia development in the Canadian Armed Forces.
