    Default Unknown tunic

    I purchased this tunic awhile ago however i know nothing about it i dont even know if its german or not however i can see an outline on the arm were an eagle was removed i was once told that its a post war italian tunic but i didnt really believe that so some ID would be nice

    this is a full front view of the tunic the label was removed when i got it also notice it only has 2 pockets


    here is a back view of the tunic


    these weird little loopy things im guessing are a belt loop but its weird


    idk whats with those collar insignia but it has caused me to rule out the possibility of it being an SA tunic also a better look at the destroyed label


    another thing that button appears to be moved there stiching up there were im assuming it was originally but now its down there and its in a very weird position as opposed to the shoulder


    all the buttons on the tunic appeared to be movewd like the shoulder ones however not very much


    this is an inside view of the tunic nothing overly important in there


    and this weird epulaut thing was down at the pottom of the front pocket when i got the thing


    also i forgot to mention this earlier but not only does it look like the eagle was removed but it also appears that a cuff title has been removed and possible a patch on one arm any help to IDing this thing would be nice

    Strange tunic, not WWII German IMO, probably post war, but sorry I can't tell you what it is. Collar tabs are weird, the belt support loops also and you say it has traces of an arm eagle. Maybe movie prop or early re-enactor conversion. The fabric looks a bit like Italian or Soviet cloth.

    Only my opinion and should be treated as such

    Agreed; this is surely not a German Third Reich-/WW2-era uniform. Otherwise, no idea.
