Infantry Officers Waffenrock

[Adam S.]

Hello!

I have recently purchased the below tunic (on layaway) and wanted to share it with you guys. This is only my 2nd tunic purchase so I am not very knowledgable in this category. It is from a trusted seller so while opinions on authenticity are appreciated they are not paramount.

I am wondering if anybody can suggest where I can source replacement sleeve tabs as well as which badges I should place in the award loops. I was considering an infantry assault badge and a DRL badge.

Enjoy

I will be matching this up with a bullion Infantry officers visor.

This takes a bullion officers belt and buckle as well?

Thanks guys.

The tunic itself is original, I believe the insignia have been reapplied- the collar tabs in particular appear very crudely sewn and I think I can see stitch holes from previous insignia. The tabs are the wrong type and should be on a white wool backing material. The boards appear to be the matte field type, these should be bright (tough to tell from the pictures). The eagle should probably be hand sewn. From what I can see there appear to be loops for one badge and a short ribbon bar. The badge loops appear fairly close together and might be for a wound badge.
