It has been modified, but it appears to be an original one.

Many thanks Robert,
Yes, I know it is original, it was found amongst the hord of other old clothes. please, how it was modified ? Jan

A rather rare jacket!

It's a shame about the condition, but a nice find. The buttons were of course changed, presumably to be worn as a normal jacket after the war. But that's an easy restoration.

My speculation is that the clothes are "Schi bluse".

I think that the area around the waist and probably the sleeves are also protected against cold.

Of course there is not the conclusive evidence.

Best regards,
Morio

Morio,
This is a regular tunic, the SS ski blouse has a fly front to conceal the buttons, wrist fasteners and gussets behind the shoulders.

Cool, great find. I am envious

**m.ishimura** · 03-29-2019, 03:38 PM

Dear derek,

I appreciate you pointing out my mistakes.

Even though it was embarrassing, I became happy.

Because I have only seen it in the price list. Is the original sample in existence?

If you wouldn't mind, would you be able to tell me it?

Best regards,
Morio Ishimura

Morio,
I don't know of an example in a collection but feel free to PM me if you would a copy of a period photo of the tunic in wear.

A tunic worth having the wool conserved correctly.

**BenVK** · 03-29-2019, 05:41 PM

Conserved yes, restored no IMO, too far gone.

**NickG** · 03-29-2019, 05:47 PM

Great find! Congrats!
