  • Toy soldiers and Template:W are often stereotypically made to be wearing Shakos, due to their common usage during that time period.
  • The shako was worn in a royal blue color on Mexican soldiers during the Template:W in the early 1800s.
  • The description of the Stout Shako describes the it as "The grand achievement of victorian millitary fashion", This is unusual given that the Shako was in use as early at the 18th century, and peaked during the Napoleonic wars.
