Original, vintage cold weather hats from the former German Democratic Republic (DDR). The East German People's Police was called the Volkspolizei and fell under control of the Ministery of the Interior (Ministerium des Innern - MdI).

We are offering 2 options for the blue/gray MdI hat in male and female versions, With or Without insignia badge:

1. Male. These have the full flaps that fold down and secure under the chin.

2. Female. These flaps only fold down over the ears.

Eastern Europeans know about cold weather, which is why these fuzzy winter faux fur military hats, are just right for people who either want a warm head or like to collect cool military stuff. They feature large ear flaps that fold down.
