GERMAN FIELD CAPS
The famous German visored field cap was first issued in 1943, following the success of the SS camouflage version introduced the year before. Modeled on the short-visored cap long worn by mountain troops, it was an immediate success on all fronts. Two of the most popular versions were the desert tan model worn by the Afrikakorps and the reversible camouflage (green for summer and brown for autumn) worn by the Waffen SS. The Afrikakorps cap has the same red cotton lining as the originals. The field gray wool model was worn by both Army and Waffen SS and had a fold-down flap to cover the ears that was secured by 2 small aluminum buttons at the front. The same cap in black was worn by Army and SS panzer crews.
HAT SIZES Unlike modern caps, these caps are not adjustable. To order a cap you need to specify a size. Don’t be embarrassed if you don’t know your hat size — in this day of adjustable one-size-fits-all baseball caps most of us never think about it.

BEVO INSIGNIA FOR FIELD CAPS *(Bevo* was the abbreviation for Bandfabrik Ewald Vorsteher, a principal maker of wartime woven insignia)** Wehrmacht insignia was worn on the front of the field gray and panzer black wool M43 caps, above the buttoned flap. Initially the SS skull was worn on the front, and the eagle on the left side of the flap; after 1943 the eagle was moved to the front above the skull. Both one and two piece insignia were used by the Army and SS. Insignia were not supposed to be worn on camouflage uniforms, but this regulation was widely ignored and the SS summer green and autumn yellow camouflage insignia, though unofficial, were often seen on these caps.

SS CAMOUFLAGE SMOCK
The Waffen SS was the first military organization in the world to use mottled camouflage clothing. During the war, it became such an identifying characteristic that American troops wearing similar camouflage patterns had to discard them because they were constantly being fired upon by their own troops. Our smocks are based on the M1942 second type smock with the foliage loops and buttoned pockets. It comes in the oak leaf pattern and is reversible from summer green to fall brown coloring, just like the originals. GMP103....$149.95
When ordering, be sure to specify which size you want: large medium or small.
