Me years ago at one of my ww2 reenactment group camps, bought this from a old guy in Germany, only obscure reference I found similar was to a Seenotdienst air sea rescue jacket, had early blue plastic RiRi zippers, lovely jacket to wear though
Hi Enigma, like I said was a bit of a conundrum we discussed it lots of times in my group, one of those off items that turned up from Germany, wish I could say more, but it looked good at the timeAny evidence that this was used by german air force? Never seen a jacket like that before and german ww2 air force jackets are my specialty for years now. The fur on the cuffs and the pockets are absolutely atypical for german flight jackets and so is the fur itself.
Maybe @Pilot knows, but I doubt that this is a ww2 german gear.
