Product Information

Our Royal Air Force Officers Beret are all manufactured to meet and exceed current UK MoD specifications.

Our approved small crown Genuine Issue RAF beret is made of 100% wool, banded with soft black leather with draw string and bow, and comes with internal badge stiffener and metal eyelets (for cap badge), with a black cotton lining. One if the best ways to remove creases from a skirt is to simply hang it for a while for the creases to drop out, but occasional ironing may be necessary. Girls may wear discreet makeup and one simple gold stud on each ear if their ears are already pierced. Welts should be free of dust, and the shoe must not be ‘cross laced’ Female shoes should be bulled at the front of the shoe and polished to a good shine on the body. Once you have finished putting the polish onto both shoes, go back to the first one and use the brush used to remove the excess polish and buff the shoe, then repeat this on the second shoe.I think that having my own beret and being able to keep it as a memento after leaving the Cadet Force would mean a lot to me. Uniform is issued to cadets on a temporary basis: it belongs to the Royal Air Force throughout the time that you loan it, which is until you hand it back in at the end of your cadet career, or when you outgrow it. Use a steam iron and press the trouser through a tea towel, this ensures the trousers do not turn shiny at the creases. The Air Cadets badge must be above the left eye and must not be obscured when viewed from the front. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item.

In between each hot and cold cycle put the beret on your head, holding the badge and pulling the excess material towards your right ear. One of my sons bought me a blue silk-lined officer’s beret but he asked the supplier to sew the beret badge on. No hair is allowed to stick out the front of the beret and is not allowed to touch the collar on the shirt. In an effort to be more sustainable we've had our outer packaging redesigned to be fully recyclable.Once you have a shine keep repeating the process, with new pieces of cotton wool, until your shoes are really shiny.

I am currently in the CCF (Air Cadet) but unfortunately, as I am not a UK citizen, I will not be able to serve in the RAF in later life.Unlike many direct sale companies this means we understand manufacturing and product development, not just selling.

Responsibility lies with the cadet, not their parents, to keep uniform in a clean and serviceable manner! If you get into the habit of getting parents, grandparents or anybody else to look after it for you, when you go away on activities, you will find that you cannot look after your own kit, and so will score very low on inspections.
