In 1938 The Luftwaffe started issuing their own version of Uniforms and gear for mountain service. Very Similar to the Army Gebirgstruppen gear, the Luftwaffe versions were made from Blue-gray wool instead of field-gray. These were welcomed by Flak and signals unit attached to other Gebirgstruppen operating in mountainous regions.
Make no mistake these are not the cheap reproduction caps from the far East sold on well known auction sites. These are hand made in Germany from Blue-Grey wool and lined with grey cotton cloth and machine stitched. These have the longer Bergmütze peak and are maker marked.
The inside of the peak is leather, Vulkanfibre or presstoff (ersatz leather) and even the threads used are cotton/linen and not modern poly-threads! These are superbly crafted & shaped caps which if genuine are sold for well over £1500+ GBP!
