The hat made of matte black, waterproof felt served as the parade headgear for the Jäger and k.k.
It had a crown and brim and was decorated with a circular green cord, the Jäger hat badge and a hackle of black cock feathers.
The crown was in the shape of an oval cone, with a moderately bulbous base at the top.
On the left side of the brim was a rearward sloping pocket made of hat felt for attaching the hackle.
The soldiers' coat of pike-grey cloth had epaulettes, shoulder patches, collar and cuffs of grass-green colour.
