    The cuff title is not correct.

    I have some concerns regarding the visor cap. I would like to see more detailed images before passing final judgement. May I suggest you post the cap on the soft headgear forum. The soft leather visors were abolished by 1937. This cap appears to have a shape reminiscent of a later cap.

    Please, would you show an example, or reference to an example of the proper cuff title?

    I note what others write above, and surely the tunic has plainly a fake cuff title. The peaked cap might be authentic, especially if the interior is real silk. It is also true that leather peaks were forbidden in 1938, but they existed prior to said date. One would have to look at the cap in hand carefully.

    These pictures above are irritating in their incomplete-ness.

    Note image attached as comparison....

    Here is an image for Richie C as orientation.....

    Notice the cuff title. This image did I borrow from the Grenadier website.....

    A very authentic VA SS issued LAH uniform from the year 1937 with all pieces utterly matching.

    One might even call it "textbook," but I eschew said phrase....

    Can't say comment about the tunic but the cap may have a chance. This guy doesn't help that much with his photos!

    I know, the images are pretty tuff. As I have stated many a time previously, if I could get in to photograph some of these items myself, it would be like night and day... So for now, it is night...

    Friedrich-Berthold, thank you very much for taking the time to clarify the cuff title issue.

    So, for now we will wait for additional images of the cap....
