910 = WSS Gebirgsjäger Windjacke
I collect Gebirgsjäger items and luckily wound up with this one. I always assumed the WSS would've obtained their wind jackets from the Army; a pleasant surprise!Comment

Those fieldgray wool breeches are really mint unissued! Nice to see the 910 in stamp.
And apparently the 910 factory also made items for the Gebirgsjager's as well.
Thanks for sharing this with us. I will update the manufacturers code list to include this item.Comment

Nice close up study of a newly issued Waffen-SS Model 44 "Erbsentarn (pea pattern) tunic and pants being worn by an SS-Hauptscharführer (SS-Chief platoon leader) of III Battalion, SS Panzer-Grenadier Regiment “Germania."
I have seen several photos showing men who served in this armored infantry battalion adopting a uniform style where they would tuck the four pocket tunic inside the waist area of the pants. Giving the wearer a sharper looking appearance as can be seen here in this photo.

These are indeed a fine example of this type of trouser, but the "quality" of manufacture in both materials used and construction is very poor as is typical of uniforms made at this time.Originally posted by Remy Spezzano View Post

Hello, quick question to the owner of the 910 Marked breaches, from my computer the two inside thigh panels appear to be more grey in color than the remainder of the breeches which appear field grey, can you confirm this? Thanks, ScottComment

This popped up in a 1941 dated (LBA stamped) LW fliegerbluse....
So pre RBNr system...maker name and town fully identified still....
So what's the meaning of "971"???
Seems to be a similar code????
Maybe these 3 digit numbers are an earlier attempt to give makers a numerical reference and not necessarily exclusively limited to W-SS production?
(Since it also appeared "910" in a Heer gebirgsjaeger double breasted "Windjacke"...?)Comment

Of interest, perhaps this ties into the stempel markings, perhaps not.
I came across this in the Beaver book that deals with 'Armored Uniforms' of the W/SS. It notes that there are 'Product Codes' for the field-grey jacket and trousers (see attached photo).
I'm wondering if these 'SKU' type stamps appear anywhere on anyone's kit, aside from what we're seeing as 'factory codes.'
I admit, I didn't take a snap of the note from which original circular this came from, it's a footnote in the book.Comment

Now I'm wondering about this one which, besides the "251" and 90 has no markings what so ever.Comment
