1943-dated M43 Einheitsfeldmutze


Manu Della Valle

Recommended Posts

Beautiful,worn-but-not-abused,1943-dated M43 made of  mid-War Italian  "nettle cloth",i.e.recycled wool with a fairly high contents of nettle fibers,and this cap has quite a few untreated and undyed fibers showing embedded in the weave.

It's worn but I would call it near-mint.

I particularly like its four-hole buttons which are original to it. 

It mustn't have either been comfortable or fresh to wear,in fact between the cloth and the lining there's a fairly high reinforcement made of either waterproof cheesecloth or rubberised paper clearly defined by the sweat marks.

It’s a 100% perfect match to a M43 and a M44 feldbluses in my collection and they makes it even more special!
