Hey all, I have had this piece for five or six years maybe, got it from Germany.
Any opinions on it would be great. Thanks a lot, Michael

Interesting conversion. It appears to be a Kriegsmarine HBT uniform with angled pocket corners etc...
Note armpit vent holes and partial white liner also typical KM style.
It probably started life as a stand up collar (basically collarless) KM uniform with fall down green collar later added.
The skirt pockets appear to lack pocket flaps, also a trait for certain KM uniforms.

Interesting, thanks I did not know that.

Interesting, thanks I did not know that.

Here's an archive image. (from an old dealer offer). Note golden anchor buttons. (also 6 button pattern btw)
You can confirm that the bottom pockets lack pocket flaps, as shown here!

Yes mine has no flaps on lower pockets. I wonder how it ended up with an SS man?
