The white hat.

cerror · 01-19-09, 07:55 PM

Ahoy!

So, I've finally gotten myself a white hat to wear while commanding my U-boat. Unfortunately, it's not an actual U-boat hat. Does anyone know where I might be able to find the actual emblem that should be on that hat so I can feel like a real geek... er, I mean kaleun?

Anyway, here's the hat:

I have a nice repro that may interest you if you wear a large.

There is a something or other Mutze store that sell reproduction uniforms

You may try googling Kriegsmarine mutze

I have a tremendously huge noggin, so I try to get the largest size possible.

Found one!

They have all sorts of other Kriegsmarine hats too.

Very good. Nice quality at a very good price. Once you sink 100,000 tons get a knights cross to go with it!

Those side caps with the tin badges look really cool

Lanzfeld · 01-21-09, 09:49 AM

$95.00 a good price???

anyone find anything cheaper?

I found one for $70, but unfortunatly, it doesn't have the eagle.

White hat?? What white hat??

Actually anything under 100$ USC for a good repro isnt bad.

It costs money to make those things. If you think thats pricey trying Ebaying a real one.

BTW thats the guy I got mine from and you can ask for the eagle as a pin or patch, your choice. Its not shown in the pic because its verboten by Ebay!! :hmm:

You guys have no imagination at all.

I bought the same yachting cap at K-Mart $10.00

Went to a sewing shop with a sized picture of what I wanted them to make on their computer operated embroidery machine and had it in 15 minutes with the iron-on backing. $17.00

Total Price $27.00 Plus I had 2 beers next door.

So you reduced by so much your contribution to the world's economy?

No wonder we have entered such a big crisis

Or like me, one can buy a white mutze cap from the bundesmarine for 30€, buy the leaves, kokarde and the kriegsmarine metal eagle for 10$ each or cheaper and make a great u-boat kaleunt white cap. The only drawback is the golden buttons on the side that are different. But barely noticeable!.

Here a link for a original kokarde:
