Hi

I would love to hear your opinion about this blue, non-reversible winterhood.
All opinions are welcome.

What is its value?

Looks like a good one to me, do not know about value.

When was this type of kopfhaubes made Werner?
I suppose this is a late war variant for the Luftwaffe around '44?

These are not so common, the Blue non-reversible jackets and pants. I have seen only one in real, on La Gleize a few years ago.

regards.

Although not addressed to me, yes it is late war, I used to own one of the jackets, it is now with forum member Martin Hall.

Non reversible winter clothing was introduced after he first bad experiences with the white / camo reversible uniforms in the winter of 43/44. So most ( if not all) non reversible clothing with the blueish lining dates post jan/feb 1944.

More info can be found in Vincent Slegers excellent book on German winter uniforms, Shiffer Publishing.
