WWII GERMAN NSKK HAT -
This is an overseas hat used by members of the NSKK. Of black wool construction. No ventilation gromets anywhere. The inside is lined with a black cotton cloth which retains the original RZM tag. Two silver metal buttons are placed in the front. A patch is placed to one side of the hat. It consists of the NSKK eagle. The problem with the patch is that the threads were built to the outside, so it is really easy for them to be snagged causing a deformation of the shape, which is what happened with this example.
