Capes were a thing Germans and their ancestors used to stay warm. Hitler was very much into German things, old and new. Perhaps he wanted to make a call-back to history, stay warm, and look cool doing it.
It looks like Gustav Weler who had a personal resemblance to the Führer and stood in for him at numerous official engagements, whose murdered body was discovered in the water tower of the Führerbunker in May 1945 by the Russians after they took Berlin. Link.
