Unknown black herringbone overseas cap

[Kimbrian]

Hello,

I´ve been offered this sidecap declared as “SS Panzerschiffchen”. Due to my lack of experience in cloth collecting and reference material, I´d like to get an oppinion from the experts.

Best regards,

Kimb

Edit button doesn´t work for me. It should read: lack of reference material should read: an original item for comparisation. From what I can read in books and from pictures, I have my doubts about this cap.

It is like a Lw mechanic side cap. Am I wrong ?

That's correct. There is actually one on the e-stand now if you want to compare prices.
