This is right out of the woodwork in Mansfield, Ohio. I bought it from a very nice guy who got it from the WWII vet back in the early 1960s who brought it home back from WWII. It is just the way it came back with the only exception being the armband, which is the original one to the tunic was removed when it was ward as a Halloween costume back in the old days. The guy's Dad thought the armband was a bit too much and only allowed him to wear the tunic to school, really! The body is really sound without damage it shows some age and some very light soiling. I thing your dry cleaner, Mr. Nussbaum, would love to help you clean it. All the insignia is original and very good. It has a nice tailor's tag on the inside. This is a good looking all original piece, which will look great in your man zone.
This one shows some honest age and use, but no abuse. The body is sound without issues. It has a bit of a scrape on the lower back, but it really does not show. The tabs are original, but I think post war applied. There is evidence where the armband was sewn to the sleeve. A dry-cleaning would help this piece. It is missing one of the front buttons. Overall, it is a good looking honest example.
This excellent matched set is what is thought to be, in the collecting community, a uniform set made in Austria for the change over to German Uniforms, for the Austrian Army just after the annexation. The tunic is very good with all original insignia. The size about a US 40. The black piped straps are correct to the tunic. The trousers look to be an appropriate site for the tunic, and match the color and age. Both pieces show some honest age and use, but are still very good & look very good together. These tunic are around from time to time, but sets are almost impossible to fine.
This is a good looking tunic with nice clean wool. The tabs look to be original as the does the mountain insignia. The eagle is original, but poorly replaced.

This is a good looking small size tunic. All the insignia looks to period applied. It really has no issues or problems. There is very light age and use with, only the tiniest moth nips. It will look great in your man zone or, on your wife with her leather skirt and spiky heals.
This is a very attractive tunic showing only light sun fading. The body has no problems or repairs only a few very slight old paint splotches and several snags on the back, but these really do not detract. The tabs are very nicely factory machine sewn, as are the shoulder strap loops. The eagle is an embroidered variant. It does not glow when viewed under a black light, but I am not convinced it is an original piece. Still, it is a really good looking bird. I do not see any markings on the inside. Overall, this is a great looking tropical tunic reasonably priced in today's crazy priced uniform market.

This is a for sure real piece which was used hard. the body is solid without mothing, but is repaired on the lower pocket, and the inside edge of the collar, plus several other small places. The eagle and tabs are original, but replaced. The shoulder straps, I would call odd variations, but original. I am sure others would call them old replicas.

The buyer's car died, and he could not afford the tunic, so here it is again. This is a good honest used tunic showing age and use, but still good for display. The original insignias have been added after the war. The shoulder straps are a set, but one does have some mothing underneath. The body has a few holes, but still has a good color.

This is a real un-messed with example. Everything all looks to be original to the tunic and not a put together piece. The gabardine body is very solid showing only light age and use.

I bought this from a US WWII vet from Highland Park, Michigan. Which is a suburb next to Detroit, where Henry Ford built the Model T and perfected the moving assembly line.

There is a very old WWII era Talon zipper installed in the front. The body is in nice shape, with a good green color. The inside is fur lined showing some separation, but nothing major. Overall, it displays well, and will look great in a display.
This is the Luftwaffe issue winter camo set. There is some disagreement in collectors' circles of whether they are for Luftwaffe ski troops or not, but the legendary George Petersen aka Mr. Luftwaffe, who I have known for many years, thinks they it is standard winter como. The set is very solid and has an nice honest look. The color is a white that looks to have been subdued years ago to a off white or very light brown. There is a great eagle on white sewn to the front, and no, I will not sell it separately. This is a great chance to buy a rare Luftwaffe set of winter camo clothing, that does no come around too often!

Are you disgusted by the prices of WWI German mountain boots??!! These things were always around in the past and nobody cared much about them. Lately they are all $800+, and are hard to find. This is a good size 11 solid pair of WWII German mountain boots, but, there is always a but, they are very slightly mismatched. They are the same size. I bought them from the vet's son who wore them for a while. The color of the cloth @ the top is a but different, and the number of grommets is also different. My guess is that the trooper had 2 sets of boots which were almost identical and the sets got mixed up. From a display standpoint, they look fine together. The leather is very solid. The soles are a bit dry, and some of the central nails are missing, but mostly on the one boot. This is the perfect set of mountain boots for your display.
