Description

Luftwaffe paratrooper (Fallschirmjäger) jump smock. A so-called "Knochensack". Smocks were made with green cloth as well as cloth showing a camo print. Tan & water camo, as well as splinter camo patterns, were issued. This example comes with a tan and water camo pattern printed on the cloth. A rather late-war-issued example.

Front buttons: Blue glass buttons. Period time attached by the factory.
Press buttons: All fully working and present, except a missing one on one of the cuffs
Pistol holster buttons: Period time attached by the factory.
Breast eagle: Machine-embroidered EM/NCO type. Correct type with blue wool backing. Period time machine-attached by the factory.
Lining: A mix of cotton and rayon lining.
