Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Brown peaked visor cap (Schirmmütze) for political leader (politischer Leiter) in the the NSDAP, German Nazi party in the Third Reich.

The peaked caps were made of tan-coloured webbed fabric, with a traditional high peak and coloured piping (Paspel) along the top of the crown, as well as above and below the cap band (Ortsgruppe: light blue, Kreis: white (originally black), Gau: red, Reich: bright lemon yellow ). The cap band itself was constructed of khaki coloured doeskin wool. The insignia of the caps consisted of a gilt NSDAP cap eagle (Parteiadler, "Party Eagle"), with a gilt wreath and a separate tri-colour cockade with a black enameled swastika in the center. The eagle was in the shape of a standard Nazi style German imperial eagle (Reichsadler, "National Eagle"), with open wings, a mobile swastika within an oak wreath and head looking towards its left wing (see Nazi Germany visor cap insignia guide at Germandaggers.com). The visor was made of dark brown vulkanfibre, the chin cord of synthetic golden threading.
