Kriegsmarine silk woven cap cockade

Kriegsmarine or German Navy silk woven or 'Be-vo' cap cockade.

On dark blue. Woven using a new technique that makes it easier to cut out the badge and affix to the tunic with less of the fraying usually associated with woven badges.

German Wehrmacht WWII enlisted men's military cloth uniform insignias were either woven or machine embroidered. Enlisted men's badges were never hand embroidered during the Third Reich or WW2. Hand embroidered versions are sometimes offered elsewhere because they require less 'up front' investment being hand made in small quantities.
