        I have no idea what they are from, I picked a load of leather ones and some bakelite buttons.

          It would have been worn with a neck tie, so for display I think it would be fine with dyed BDM buttons.

              SS Shirt

              SS brownshirts are exceedingly rare, so any example should be approached with extreme caution. This is not a reflection on the seller, but it is not a shirt I would buy. The collar piping looks original, and the shoulderboard is original, but IMO, there's a good chance the shoulderboard (and maybe the shirt) is actually SA. I would expect to see an SS cuff title, and also a Driver Qualification sleeve badge, worn by almost all Motor personnel. Unit collar tab doesn't appear to match the wear exhibited in the shirt.

                Because of what? Ellaborate with specifics why.

                    Shirt

                    Yes - there was an early period where the SS enlisted tabs were piped in white, but I don't know for how long. I think this was likely an SA shirt.

                      Just a thought, if the piece should be approached with extreme caution, why should it not in some way be a reflection on the seller? I would approach many things on this site with extreme caution. Good items are to be found there for sure, but IMO the number of highly questionable ones and out right repros cannot be overlooked, and throws suspicion to me on anything offered. I give sellers the benefit of the doubt on extremely rare items, the item may just not be within their knowledge base, but when I see quite common items that are bad, it should and does reflect on ANY seller be they a straight collector or dealer.

                          I think the brownshirt is the only place where numbered tabs actually CAN be worn without piping ..
