More photos of the jacket would help but it looks okay to me.

Maybe the member is worrted about the lack of Horizontal stiches downside where the band meets the fabric.I like what I see though

[TOULON44]

thanks to all , i was a little worry about the horizontal stitching lines lacking because i've never seen this neither in books nor on the web . all tunics i have handle had them . I 'll post jacket pics soon .

I've an original SS M42 tunic that lacks the horizontal stitching. So, it looks perfectly fine to me, too.

Looks fine to me, in fact that stitch pattern is seen in many good SS tunics. pre/mid/late war, both wool and hbt. Army/Luft seemed to prefer heavier horizontal reinforcement, SS fewer, probably for economy reasons.

100% period sewing imo
