The embroidery is mounted on a black wool base, measuring 64 mm x 46 mm. Sewn in place in the front of the cap is a standard BeVo style SS cap trapezoid. constructed of machine woven grey and green threading in the shape of a standard SS eagle, and an SS Skull. Both insignia appear original to the cap and are machine-sewn to the outside fabric.
