Confederate Officer Slouch Hat (Toon)

The headgear of the typical Confederate Infantryman was the slouch hat, or the military Kepi. The slouch hat was the preferred choice of many soldiers, including officers. The hat was normally a floppy, wide brimmed, woolen body head-cover, meant to protect the individual from the sun, and inclement weather. It was normally a civilian hat, of brown, gray, or black wool. This simple hat saw widespread use throughout the Confederate Armies, and even with U.S. Army personnel. Occasionally, the hat was adorned with insignia of the wearer’s preference, and may have been pinned up for the drill in the use of the regular weapon of the time, the Rifled-musket. *1 model (low poly) with textures and materials.
