East German Cold Weather Balaclava. Close to WW2 style
It looks a little weird when you're not wearing it — a bit like a sock really. But don't let that turn you off. This is a solid balaclava with a classic, no-nonsense fit. The Kopfschützer (literally Head Protector in German) commonly known as NVA Balaclava is a woolen balaclava of German origin
Overview
The NVA balaclava is made of synthetic wool[7] consisting of 100% Polyacrylonitrile[8][9] and is knitted in cable style. It has one large oval eye opening which also allows the exposure of the nose for easier breathing. It is 20" long[1] and two color variations are known, olive drab (grün) and brown.
