Campaing Hat Chin Strap & Hat Cord

[Pay Dirt Norvelle]

I was able to find a WWI Campaign hat, however it does not have a hat cord or chin strap.  Are there any vendors for those two items.  I have done some searching on the Web, but have not found any vendors with the authentic stuff.  Thanks for any help.

Remember that the cavalry had a chin strap for their campaign hats. Other arms had a thinner strap that went around the back of the head. I know it sounds silly, but that's how it was worn until the campaign hat was phased out.

I was at the Resistol/Stetson hat outlet store last year.  They had a bunch of Stetson campaign hats.  They sold the leather band and chin strap separately.  The chin strap loops around the hat band.   I don't know if they still have them.  You might give them a call:

I found the Chin Strap at What Price Glory and it is on the way.  As to the hat cord I will probably get the one from Cav Hooah as WPG was out of them (Infantry).  Thanks for the information everyone, I appreciate it.
