RACAL - Boucle Wool 4Panel Cap [RL-25-1409]
Description
RACAL’s RL-25-1409 takes the simplicity of a four panel cap and gives it considerably more character through fabric and construction. Made in Japan from a compressed bouclé wool blend, it has a textured, slightly irregular surface that feels more substantial than a conventional cotton cap while maintaining RACAL’s clean approach to everyday headwear.
The fabric is a 65% wool and 35% nylon blend with the naturally looped and uneven texture associated with bouclé. RACAL compresses the fabric, giving it a denser hand and helping the cap maintain its shape without losing the visual softness of the wool. In Charcoal, that texture creates subtle shifts between lighter and darker tones rather than appearing completely flat.
The four panel construction gives the cap a distinctive silhouette. Instead of the familiar six panel baseball cap layout, the crown is divided into four larger sections, producing a cleaner shape with fewer seams across the front. It feels somewhere between traditional sportswear and older military headwear, which is exactly where much of the character of this style comes from.
RACAL leans further into that military influence through the finishing details. Herringbone stitching runs along the side panel seams, introducing a small piece of contrast and emphasizing the construction of the crown. At the front, a loop made from the same bouclé fabric provides a subtle accent without relying on an embroidered logo or graphic.
The lack of prominent exterior branding keeps the focus on the shape and material. It is a restrained approach that makes the cap particularly versatile, especially in Charcoal where the wool texture adds depth without becoming difficult to pair with the rest of a wardrobe.
At the rear, an adjustable strap allows the fit to be fine tuned rather than relying on fixed sizing. The cap is offered in a single adjustable size, making it easy to wear slightly looser or more securely depending on preference.
The Charcoal colour works particularly well with the texture of the compressed bouclé. It pairs naturally with indigo denim, black denim, military olive, ecru, leather and heavier wool outerwear, making it an easy addition to the kind of layered fall and winter wardrobe the fabric was designed for.
Like much of RACAL’s headwear, the appeal is in the details rather than obvious branding. The unusual four panel shape, compressed wool texture, military influenced stitching and understated construction give a relatively simple cap enough character to stand apart without feeling overdesigned.
Made in Japan.

Fabric & Care: Made from a 65% wool and 35% nylon compressed bouclé fabric. The wool provides the cap’s textured, dimensional surface while the nylon adds durability and stability to the fabric. Due to the wool content and structured construction, spot cleaning or professional cleaning is recommended rather than machine washing.
Fit: One size with an adjustable rear strap, allowing the circumference to be fine tuned for a comfortable fit. The four panel construction creates a clean, distinctive crown shape compared with a conventional six panel baseball cap.
