Please can anyone give a opinion on this SAS beret ?.The badges seems to have a extra tall piece on the top.Was this type ever worn and if so when?.Would it be original to the beret?
Thanks in advance |

The badge is an early design and the beret is c.1990's therefore I assume the badge is a copy added to a surplus beret.

I agree with Jerry, the badge is a copy.

Not good at all, the beret itself is one not seen much, if at all. Even my crap leather banded one which ran into my badge had a leather band on.

The band on the beret looks the same as the Kangol Navy blue berets issued to us in the 80's altho ours had the sizing in metric.

I think the the beret is fine, it's a typical MOD issue one of the late 1970's to 90's I believe. The leather banded ones of the same period were private purchase I am told.
The badge on this beret is a fake as previously stated. Why anyone should do this to deceive if that is the intention I don't know when genuine issue badges of this period are common. Jack |

No leather banded ones are issued as well. Hope this helps.
