    Alkero - Original or Post War???

    It is a rainy day today so I looked in some footlockers for things I haven't seen in years. I have had this hat that was given to me for some time now, definitely nothing very elegant, but thought I would ask about the maker label as I did not see this particular one posted in the pinned areas. I realize this maker is prominent in the post-war era so looking for validation whether it is or isn't.

    Thanks for looking and welcome your comments.

    The cap is period, not more to me...

      Pre-war cap. It had FAD insignia, but that is not the typical FAD hat.

        I'd like to see a closer shot of the visor trim...

          Stonemint - you are correct as I believe this could be more of Weimar era hat. I am posting the picture that came with the hat.

          As requested more shots of the hat

            shot of the trim... if my eyes are correct it looks to be almost a herringbone type weave.

            Also... a shot of the top trim - same material as hat.
