Only One Available. This is a fantastic \"salty\" service worn German WWII Waffen SS camouflage cap, made using the Waffen-SS specific \"Oak Pattern A\" (Eichenlaubmuster) camouflage, which was in use 1943–1945. This pattern was based on the earlier Platanenmuster (Plane Tree Pattern) used 1937–1942, and was reversible, with a \"spring\" side and an \"autumn\" side. These camouflage caps were made from a variety of materials during the war. Combined with the comfort of a field cap, they were relatively popular, and many were made in field workshops, so they were produced in countless styles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with most we see, there is no lining in the cap, though there is a \"Sweatband\", made from the same camouflage material. The cap has the \"spring\" side on the exterior, with more browns and greens, while the interior has the \"autumn\" side showing, though the cap is definitely not sewn to be reversible. It shows heavy use during the war, and possibly afterwards, with fraying, wear, tears, fading, and many stitch repairs on the reverse. Size seems to be roughly 58-59cm, though it may have stretched over the yeras.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA great \"salty\" example of a field made cap that comes ready for further research and display!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Original Items","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43827616088133,"sku":"ONAC25SD0280","price":895.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1524\/1342\/files\/ONAC25SD0280__02.jpg?v=1760389658","url":"https:\/\/www.ima-usa.com\/products\/original-german-wwii-field-made-cap-made-from-waffen-ss-eichenlaubmuster-oak-pattern-camouflage","provider":"International Military Antiques","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
