Luftwaffe Winter Fur Cap 1942

Description

Luftwaffe Winter Fur Cap (Pelzmütze). These winter caps were a standard issue item and were distributed to all EM/NCO’s for the winter season, (15 September to 15 April), with other winter garments and were to be returned to the units clothing depot in April for storage, repair and cleaning to be re-issued the following September. Although there was no official standard model of the fur cap the most commonly encountered type followed the basic pattern of the Mountain and M43 caps with fold down back and side panels designed to protect the wearer’s ears and neck. This is a standard Luftwaffe type of winter fur cap in typical luftwaffe grey wool, with faux fur to the sides and front. The cap is size '57' marked and nicely maker marked by the company 'Berolina' from Berlin and dated 1942. The cap is having two black tie strings to keep the cap secured when worn folded up. The fur cap never had insignia attached. The cap is in overall good used condition showing normal traces of usage. Hard to find original Luftwaffe Winter Fur Cap!
