Waffen-ss m43 field cap

Hi guys could I please hear about your views on this item I have looked around but I cannot get a firm idea if it is a good one or not Best regards

I’d say fake, the stitching should be parallel as the SS used double needle sewing machines.
The stitching lines cross on the ear flap.

I enclose these two further pictures for future reference a pity it did not turn out to be a good one

The stitch lines are very difficult to fake without the correct machine, it is a good red flag to look for.
