FJ Smock opinions

[Phil Borchert]

I picked this up recently out of an old collection. It was part of a large purchase and something I don't collect. I've never studied one close up since I don't collect them and they are generally out of my price range. I would appreciate your opinions. Due to the poor lighting, I think the smock is a little greener than it may appear in the pics. Thanks.

Hello,
this piece reminds me of the early reenactor-made smocks.
Is there a distinct reason why it could be a WW2-vintage field-made item?

best regards,
Volker

With" field made"i meant "hobby made " post WW2 , nothing to do with original WW2 field made items.

Hi Maus,
sorry, I misunderstood you.
BTW, the material is not Luftwaffe splinter pattern either.

best regards,
Volker
