tunic
tunic is matched with other HBT tunics I have, so have no problem with tunic originality, just the SS-BW stamp, no HBT is not absolute standout. have you got a picture of the type of tunic your talking about. I have no doubt panzer insignia has been added at some stage, more than likely post war by a collector. any comments about the SS sleeve eagle ghosting

the tunic itself is original , at one point badly ss customized, and later reapplied
again with heer insignas...
Definitively not a "French production", and about the weave inside/ outside similar = fake, it's time to stop this urban legend....

If the inside has the same HBT pattern as the outside it is a fake. Lets see close up photo's of the inside. You can only see a small portion of the inside past where the outside material is folded over showing the fake stamp , it appears from that photo that the inside has the same HBT pattern as the outside. This is why Nick (and I ) think the tunic is fake.

Once again, IMO,he tunic is original...perfect marking , material, color, button holes, known
tropical scrap lining etc...
You have to analize a tunic with differents characteristics added...
I know some tunic in mint condition with weave almost similar outside/ inside
and I can assure you those ones are perfectly guenine.
This subject has been debated in the past and some knowledgeable collectors
agree with this fact
Unfortunatly, the french production is known for this detail, but not only,
the color is incorrect, cloth texture, odd bright appearance and typical ink blurry black marking+ lack of stitching details

You are ignoring the fact that all real HBT tunics only have the HBT pattern on the outside material not the inside!.... Until we see a good photo of the interior we will not know.
Here is a real example showing the fold over of the outside material HBT pattern compared to the inside pattern of the HBT material..
