HJ/DJ Winter Service Cap
Deutsche-Jugend/Hitler-Jugend Winter Service Cap (Mütze für HJ-DJ). This ski cap was introduced in 1937 and designed similar to the Army style Mountain Cap (Bergmütze). Black woolen construction ski cap. The front buckle is neatly marked on the reverse with an RZM logo and manufacturer code 'M5/233', the buckle is showing some oxidation. The cap is complete with its original artificial leather sweatband and original RZM etiket. The cap is size '60' marked being a very large size. The cap is having its original BeVo woven HJ emblem original machine-sewn on front. The cap is showing some minor staining but is in overall very good condition. This cap originates from a small hoard of HJ winter blouses and winter caps, recently uncovered on an attic in Flanders (Belgium). These caps were probably issued to a Flemish HJ unit. Rare and hard to find original HJ winter cap in good condition!
