"Buffalo cap" seems to be a common name in the UK for these caps, allegedly because of the manufacturer.
I'll not argue the sense of calling them that, as it doesn't particularly make sense to me, it's just a name for them here.
I wasn't aware that the one shown was a woman's.
Pleasing to see that I was right in expecting someone who knew about these things to post info.
As I only have the one Canadian cap it's more liable to find itself in Room 101 than I am to buy a book on the subject, but you can't argue with getting books if you're going to collect stuff.
Alas, I'll merely trawl for info on such things and spend cash on books on "my" collecting vices.
