Early y-straps

[PIotrS]

Hi. This Y-straps looks like on early but I'm not sure that are original? Maybe post-war Austrian

Best regards.

The brown leather could indicate pre or early war, however the pouch clips at the end of the main straps are generally attributed to later war y-straps. These appear to have aluminum D-rings on the main strap as well as aluminum rivets holding the secondary straps and the belt hook looks to be aluminum. I can’t see if the back strap rivet is aluminum.
I’m guessing that these are early war Y-straps that have had the pouch hooks replaced at some point in time.
By chance are there any stamps?

Stitches next to large rivets= late war

That's correct, from late 1943 to 1945

Thanks guys for comments. Unfortunately Y-straps haven't any stamps. Are you certain that are original german IIWW?
