Thanks for your opinion Bob.

Because of the SS BW stamp and repro pattern I highly doubt that it is a fieldmade cap ....it's just a aged fake....This camo pattern was never used for factory made caps...just as Bob said.

Sorry

Is that where you found this cap? That place is never-never land.

Bob

No need to post pictures from that site.

Here for me an interesting picture.
Look at the cap, the style and cut seems to me the same, no sorry, the same cut 100%
A questions to experts please. How you can be sure 100% is a fake, how do you know never used this camo pattern for factory made caps?
Thanks for your opinions.

To the best of my knowledge, ALL factory produced SS camouflage hats were reversible.

Thanks B. N. Singer but what do you think about the photo?
IMO is the same style

I know this foto (and another one of the same guy) for some years - MO: He became a POW wearing a M44 camo-tunic, which was used-up during the years behind barbwire. One day the tunic became just a piece of well-used and torn cloth. And as nothing was trown away, he made this cap (maybee he had a sample?). As you see from the image the colours are very faded ******180;cause of use all day.

Obviously the faker who produced the cap in question knows those images, too...

If you want to own something that has 2% chance of being real, and want to back it up with photo, but you can't trace it directly to that vet (and by trace I would mean he gave it to you directly) it's quite the gamble you're taking.

And I see no threads on his cap from the adler or TK. So it's obviously not his, in question. Same cut etc, sure, but again it's a gamble.
