Re: German cold weather helmet?? If not, what?
Period item but not sure if it is military - people wore those after the war as well - riding bikes or as winter hats.

Hi again Meyle, I does not look military but 1941 intrigues me. Is it a date or a stock number or what?? Cheers MR

Looks like later ink date and size stamps to me

Hi kradman, Thank you for your observations. The size is, as you rightly say, an ink stamp. However, the date is actually woven into the label.
Cheers Michael R

If you look up GA Hoffmann they did make peak caps in the war for the German forces and also flying helmets so maybe this hat is ok ,Could be a item made for that first cold winter in Russia
