German WWII Kriegsmarine Schlageter Enlisted Man’s Deck Cap, White Top

A virtually pristine, unissued enlisted man’s deck cap from the training ship Schlageter, likely a private purchase. This exceptionally high-quality cap features a removable white top, adorned with combined Kriegsmarine insignia. The eagle retains all its original gilding, complemented by a full-length cap tally in immaculate condition.

The light tan leather sweatband is flawless, showing no signs of wear. A classic Kriegsmarine name label, embroidered in red on white bearing the name ‘Funke,’ is sewn onto the lower section of the cap, with an identical label also attached to the removable top. Sized 55, this cap includes a unique feature rarely seen—a fabric chinstrap.
