Description

This is hands down one of the greatest looking visor I’ve ever had the pleasure of handling. During the 2nd World War German regulations specified crusher types of visor caps were only intended to be worn by Officer’s. But as with other elite units in the Third Reich, the true grit combat veterans were able to do whatever they wanted. With the removal of the leather chinstrap/buttons, the stiffener in the front, as well as the peak metal ring, the soldier was able to fold his cap up into a crusher type shape/ wear it in the field. This cap not only has an amazing look, but it also has extremely rare lime-green piping as worn by Panzer Grenidier. This extremely hard to find rayon piping is not redyed, it shows heavy age from being worn in the elements and matches the cap perfectly. If you want something that can tell a story without speaking, this is the perfect visor!
