Classic Heer Bergmütze
$2,100.00
This is a really fine example of the iconic Bergmütze, or mountain hat, worn by the elite gebirgsjäger units who fought in the high altitudes of the southern and southeastern fronts. Their headgear consists of an ‘m43 style’ cap (although designed long before the M43), but with a higher peak and a shorter brim, also a full sweatband around the circumference of the hat inside, and grommets on the sides. The Insignia on this example are the T-shaped heer eagle and roundel, and metal Edelweiss on the left side. These are period applied and unaltered. All in all an elegant cap, that shows moderate service use and that gentle age patina. A fine example for the display, COA accompanies.
