Few people would paste a very fake tag on a real kepi IMO

I also do not like the 'edge' that the skull has.
I don't like that the chinstrap; it does not have the center "ss style" loop, and the end edge cuts are odd

But here is what I do like:

I like that hat material
I like the orange inside (although that seems more SA to me)
I like the eagle

The SS Kepis either originals or the traditions one worn after '33 are some of the rarest pieces of 3rd reich headgear out there.
I think I have handled one that I can say was 100% authentic. So sadly you have to err on the side of caution and assume guilt until proven innocent. But again that is only my opinion. You asked.
