History

First Introduced in 1934. It  was a double breasted jacket of  fine black  wool(Chosen to hide  oil stains.) The  fall collar  had rose pink piping to represent  panzer units.  The  early  Model jacket  had  wide lower  labels   for  purely  ornamental  purposes.  The  later M36   pattern  enabled  the  wrap  to button  up  and close  at the to via a metal eyelet. The linings like out  reproductions  were partially lined  with  grey cotton  twill. Later  in the  war  this  was  replaced  with  rayon, a type of artificial silk .

There  were manufacture  variations  made  during  the  war  and also private purchase   jackets  were made.  The  buttons  were mostly  black  plastic  but  horn buttons  can also be found. Collar  insignia  was   black  tabs  with stamped  metal  deaths  head (totenkopf)  skulls  surrounded  again by  rose pink piping. The national  emblem(  eagle  and  swastika)  was  stitched  to the right  breast. Black  wool  shoulder boards(Schulterklappen)  complete the  jacket.
