Original Item: Only One Available. This is a genuine Luftwaffe Issue Wartime Issue dark blue leather great coat. It is nicely broken in, showing a good amount of period wear, and has a light gray blue removable liner, which attaches by snaps to the inside. This allows it to be laundered separately, and also can be removed for warmer weather. We tried it on, and it seems to be about a size 38-40. Complete measurements are listed below.
The liner still has the original Luftwaffe issue maker tag, which reads:
VERKAUFSABTEILUNG
der
Luftwaffe
(L.V.A)
BERLIN SW 68
Puttkamerstr. 16-18
This indicates it is an officially issued and designed great coat, purchased directly from the Luftwaffe Sales Department. These were worn by officers, and the look is iconic. The open collar would make it easy for their rank to be seen, or sometimes rank shoulder boards would be added to the exterior.
Offered in very good condition, this is an exceptional wartime coat that gives one heck of a silhouette when worn!
