Made in the same cotton-poplin fabric as the Mountain Jacket (Windjacke), this cap was made for the German Mountain troops, better known as die Gebirgsjäger. Unlike the wool mountain cap, the cotton mountain cap has a longer visor like the M-43 field cap. The edge of the turn-down of the cap (where the two buttons are) does not have rounded edges like its wool counterpart. Also, there is not a complete lining in the cap. Only the sides are lined but the top is not. Even with those differences, this cap still maintains many of the classic, well known features that defines a true mountain cap; tall crown, tear drop shape, leather sweat band and "T" formed insignia. Please look at the photographs below to spot these details.
