on German tunic!!!!

Hi Chris, as JP has said, grey is a fairly scarce colour strap to find.

Agreed, a bit annoying about the collar tab "repair"..

It is still a good basic tunic.

Cheers, Ade.

Hey Ade, thanks for the reply. I was wondering if the color of the thread of the tabs is normal to be yellow or if they should be grey as well.
I'm attaching a photo to see what i mean.

For example in this photo the green color is on both tabs and boards. I guess my tabs are not a set with the boards.

Unless the grey color on the thread has faded away.

Hi Chris, the collar tabs (Litzen) should display the same colour waffenfarbe as the shoulder boards. To me, the Litzen are Infantry white.

I would be tempted to replace the shoulder boards with a white piped pair.

Cheers, Ade.

So you suggest that it would be better to replace the boards than the tabs because it's more likely the tabs to be original on the tunic? The boards i would guess that are replaced, having all those stitches on the edge.
