WW2 German Army Administration Officer’s Peaked Cap – Feldgrau, Original Example

WW2 German Army Administration Officer’s Peaked Cap – Feldgrau, Original Example

An original German Army (Heer) Administration Officer’s peaked cap dating to the Second World War, presented in classic feldgrau cloth with dark green branch distinctions.

This officer’s cap is constructed from typical feldgrau wool, featuring a dark green centre band and matching piping, denoting the Administration branch. The cap displays the desirable high front saddle shape, giving it a strong and elegant profile.

It is fitted with an aluminium national eagle and silver bullion cockade, along with original silver cap cords and pebble buttons, all contributing to its authentic and complete exterior appearance.

The interior retains its gold silk lining, though now showing staining from age and use. The celluloid diamond is absent, and the tan leather sweatband shows wear and damage, particularly to the forehead area—consistent with genuine period use.
