Who makes the best repro black Panzer Wrap?

[feldwebel34]

Greetings to all! Fairly new to forum and wondered if those with experience in the the repro field could give some advice on who has the most accurate black Panzer Wrap...

my apologies to those who will want to tell me...'not this thread again' or 'why don't you research the forums...'

I am also looking for images of the panzer wrap with insignia...
Thanks!

It depends on how much you want to spend. There are some fairly decent ones available from Chinese makers on eBay, you can spend $75 or so on one of them but if you want a better quality, you can get one from Janke in germany for around $400 I think.
Go to www.atthefront.com and look at theirs, I think Rollin has some in pretty good quality for a decent price the last I heard. Look everything over and decide before calling because Rollin is sort of hard to deal with and gets mad if someone calls and wants to ask questions. Have your credit card handy.

ATFs Panzer Wrap is the STURM copy. Not the best, but ok. This jacket is offered by several dealers, i think you get it cheaper if you compare the offers.

I just received an Assault Gunners Wrap from Hessen and I am very impressed with what AZM is producing. The interior details seem correct and the cloth (a wool and nylon blend) is close to the Wool Rayon blend in appearance.

If I did it again I would opt for no insignia, and find my own.

I also opted to resew my buttons with black cotton thread, a pain (maybe) but looks better than the factory done buttons. I know most of these buttons are covered, but I know and that counts.

For $90.00 it is a decent product and with a few improvements you have a very good uniform.

I have been looking for the glass buttons as used in the Assault gun and Panzer wraps. Does anyone reproduce them in glass and not plastic? I have tried several times to find an original set but my posts have been ignored each time. Either they are very scarce or someone is sitting on them. It would be nice if someone reproduced them for the reenacting community.
