A simple, flat foldable hat common in may of the world's militaries, the side cap actually has a long and complex history, drawing from such varied countries as France, the UK (and Scotland in particular), Austria and Serbia. Set aside for a time in favor of the beret, it has recently been making a comeback, as it is practical, cheap, and easy to store.

The caps I wear in this video come from Doursoux.com ; Amazon.com ; the Fort de Chartres Rendezvous ; and friends who gave me their old ones.
