the gloves look good. I just posted some pics of my gloves and toque in another thread here in the equipment section. check it out. the socks I really dont have much knowledge in but I hear they are supposed to be heavy and coarse. the toque looks very "new" and thick? check out the thread going on now here about toques. post some close ups of it with a description.

The socks are not like any originals I have seen, so I suspect they are reproductions.

And my last sock shot. My socks came from Ostfront and the gloves came from 1944. To me, these look the same. I am no expert. I collect Heer cloth insignia.

Here are some pics of my socks. I got these from George Peterson over a decade ago. They are not as thick as the ones i've seen the last 5-6 years. the upper portions are a loose weave (can see through it) while the bottom is a tighter weave. Here are a few pics.WR jim
