WH Reversible 'Sumpftarn' Camouflage Parka
Wehrmacht Reversible 'Sumpftarn' camouflage winter parka (Tarnjacke). This camouflage pattern was designated 'Sumpftarnmuster' (tan/water pattern). The winter parka's were a standard issue item and were distributed to all EM/NCO’s for the winter season, (15 September to 15 April), with other winter garments and were to be returned to the units clothing depot in April for storage, repair and cleaning to be reissued the following September. The parka shows some normal traces of usage, there is some staining, see photos. The parka is still showing nice bright colours, this parka is manufactured of different shades of Sumpftarn camouflage, see photos, a true piece of camouflage art. The parka is not visible maker marked or dated. The parkas were designed large enough to fit over the standard service uniform and will fit a mannequin easily. Beautiful original example in very good condition!
