EREL Heer Crusher Cap Field Police with Metal Eagle
WW2 German Army Feldgendarme (Field Police) Crusher cap made by EREL in Germany.
This version has the cockade made in Bevo and sewn onto the lower band and the Army eagle is the metal version which is pinned on.
The Offizierfeldmutze is more often called the "Crusher" cap due to its shape. When issued or purchased the cap would have had a metal wire on the inside of the crown to keep the top of the cap flat, this would be removed and the sides folded down to give it a field worn or veteran look which gives the cap its crushed look.
This is a top quality reproduction of the German WW2 crusher cap worn by the German Heer (Army) Feldgendarme . This cap is made in Germany by EREL who was a wartime hat manufacturer in WW2 for the German Army and still makes caps today.
There are plenty of replica Crusher caps for sale but none compare to the quality of these German made caps which are made using the finest materials and workmanship.
The EREL made Army Field Police Crusher cap features:
- Feldgrau wool crown.
- Dark green wool band.
- Orange Feldgendarme piping is wool.
- Soft leather peak.
- Rayon liner.
- EREL Offizier Kleiderkasse Berlin stamping inside the hat.
- Top quality Bevo cockade insignia made with the officers aluminium thread.
- Metal Army cap eagle.
Made by EREL in Germany.
The Robert Lubstein company is better know by its brand EREL. In WW2 the EREL factory was contracted to make hats for the German military and you can still find original war time hats with the EREL mark inside them today. In fact many reference books show original war time hats made by EREL and in these books you can clearly see the EREL brand marks inside them.
Amazingly the EREL company is still making hats in Germany today! so what is better than having a reproduction German hat made by one of the original hat makers in WW2. These EREL caps are made with high quality fabrics just like the war time hats you cant really have any better.
As these hats are made in Germany, under current German laws they are not allowed to sell them with insignia on them. So we have high quality insignia made and we then fix the insignia onto the cap in UK.
So with this cap you are getting a high quality hat and high quality badges.
