■ milestone Original Cap Milestone MSC-014 Matte Black Purchased online from the manufacturer in 2023 and used once for an Alpine traverse and twice for local low-mountain hikes. After that, it was hand-washed and stored. Since it's not used very often, I've decided to sell it while it's still in good condition. Although it has been used infrequently, it is not new, so I have listed it as "No noticeable scratches or dirt." This is a perfect piece of gear for the upcoming season. It will be shipped compactly via Nekoposu. Below is an excerpt from the HP. The milestone original cap series pursues breathability and comfort. This is the successor model to the highly popular MSC-011 from last year. It features a mesh back for excellent breathability. "LIGHTING YOUR WAY" is embroidered on the underside of the brim. The larger form of this cap is designed to be comfortable even when worn for long periods. Size is adjustable (adjuster built into the inside of the cap). Commitment to the milestone original cap series ■ About the Wire Brim The brim of the hat has a wire incorporated, allowing it to hold any desired shape. Even when wearing a headlamp, if you point the brim downwards, the light will not be blocked and can be directed forward. ■ About the Shape The head shapes of Europeans/Americans and Japanese people differ overall, so even with the same head size, there can be a feeling of discomfort when worn. Europeans/Americans: Narrower width, protruding back of the head / Japanese: Wider width, many with a flat back of the head. *Traditional running caps are often slim, and when worn by Japanese people, they often make the face appear larger. ■ Why does the face look bigger? Wearing a hat narrower than your cheekbones makes your cheeks appear to stick out, making your entire face look larger. Conversely, if the hat is wider than your cheekbones, your cheeks will appear slimmer, creating a small-face effect. ■ About Depth The position where the ears attach differs between Europeans/Americans and Japanese people. Europeans/Americans: Ears attach higher / Japanese: Ears attach lower. ■ Commitment to Cap Shape The position where the ears attach differs between Europeans/Americans and Japanese people. For the reasons mentioned above, we have adopted a wider brim that fits Japanese head sizes, and the depth is designed through research to fit comfortably when worn.
