Reproduction NKVD Visors.
They are using repro stamps now too....the hat is a repro, being sold as original on our favorite junk bid site. Stay away.
DougD Note the repro stamp, made to look original, but with uneven wear, etc. Last edited by CtahhR; 09-17-2013 at 12:52 PM. |

I was looking at the hat and trying to figure out why it looks wrong. Then it came to me. The genuine NKVD hats I own or have seen are not padded on the crwon like this one. Maybe some genuine ones are but none I have seen.

yes,
...the padding is a giveaway, along with the wrong material brim, and the colors being a bit off. Its amazing how fast the cloth repros are spreading.How long till repro NKVD generals uniforms and hats....
