WW2 Era German Made Civilian M43 Style Ski Cap

This is a WW2-era civilian cap crafted in the German M43 field cap style. The exterior is made from a wool blend in a feldgrau (field gray) color, closely resembling military-grade material. The cap features two front buttons and a functional short visor. The interior is lined with a quilted black material for added warmth, suitable for use during winter activities such as skiing.

This piece exemplifies the blending of military style with civilian utility during the wartime period, likely produced for the domestic market rather than military issue. Its design and material make it a fantastic addition to a late-war Volkssturm display or impression, perfectly reflecting the resourcefulness and adaptations made during the final stages of the conflict. It remains in overall good condition, showing minor signs of age and use, and is an excellent representation of wartime civilian-military crossover designs.
