Yes his original/real costume had wings on his head.
But ALL of the heroes have been resign when they entered the Marvel’s “Ultimate” universe.

The “Ultimate” franchise is an attempt to reach and appeal to a modern age of audience.
For example, Spiderman is a 16-year old web-programmer instead of an older photographer and Nick Fury is a younger black guy instead of an older white guy.
The ultimate artist must have thought that Captain America’s wings would have looked too silly for the modern audience so they removed it (yeah i couldn’t adjust to his new look for a while too… I still miss the wings).
