Hi, folks. I'd really like to share my latest cap - this textbook RBNr. marked Einheitsfeldmütze.
The "M43" is one of my absolute favorite pieces to collect, but it's so difficult to find a good one, and I'm so skeptical of every one of them that I handle, that I'm always very excited when I find a nice original example.
This one has all the hallmarks - shoddy grey/green wool with flecks of other material thrown in with the wool mix, reinforcement bias material under the flaps, a stitch around the cap to secure the stiff internal "sweatband", rayon liner, typical zip-and-flip applied trapezoid - just a great well worn (but not too abused) cap all around.
Happy to have it. Thanks for having a look!
