        As Ray say, it looks as all is artificialy aged.
        Someone clean a coal mine with it and put down the lower pocket to get feeling for a hard fighter tunic.
        I also don't like the style of it.
        It's not the uniform, which I would expect that it is a text book LW tropical tunic.
        However I could be wrong but another problem is the missing lower pocket.

        Stripped LW tropical tunic are sold for around 450-500EU if in good condition.

        I would say this is not worth the half of a nice stripped tunic, because of the missing pocket and some other damages.

          For clarification, I don't speak for the helmets, not my territory, tunic only.

                  I'm familiar with the thread but it has not changed my perspective.

                    Aries, determination of authenticity is not, thank God, determined by democratic vote.

                        Just don't characterize them as anything other than than what they really are: at best, question marks. Good luck collecting question marks.
