Leather Panzer Wrapper / Trousers - Two Complete Sets - Vet Acquired

[Colorado]

OK, the wrapper part is a stretch, but it has come up before on WAF. I did obtain both sets straight from a Vet family. They are mint as you can see. Nearly identical, except lining is different in one wrapper and it has no tag.

What are they really? They are black as coal, not KM gray, there is no indication they were meant for NSKK. So my gut tells me they might have been for Wet Weather Gear for someone like Pioneers or other sorts, that was used by Panzer Crews or whoever else fashioned themselves needing them. Anyway. Enjoy. I never came across any before I got these and it was two at once and never seen any since straight from a Vet family.

Some of you have noticed more of my stuff is coming out. We are moving soon and things are getting boxed up around the house. So, I may have to sell some items off (like my flag horde collection I just posted this past week) and considered dragging one or both of these sets to SOS. I wanted to post for the permanent record in case they get broken up.

Here are some discussion links from before to confuse the issue:

Very cool sets Jeff, and nicely marked. I'm not exactly sure what they are, but I could definitely see a panzer commander wanting to wear one of those jackets!
