SS clothing by Hugo Boss

A very interesting tread , glad to see we could dispell the myth of Boss designing the SS Uniform . I guess it is just a urban myth .

I learned today about the varieties of knowledge and modes of knowing, and this thread well embodies the range of possibilties.
We have some significant persons here, whose learning dispels with silly myths, legends, canards, and mis information that has
no place in the spirit and mind of the real collector.

As I know nothing about the tailoring of these uniforms..i support CBH thoughts on the Hussars..and I have seen a black cap somewhere on StoneMints cap forum..showing the same style Black cap as seen with our related TR study SS caps.

Yet I can not pin point the thread in my observation..but yet the post is thread / post is available..if someone would kindly post a link to support this thread Regards Larry

I found it and this photo does come from Stonemints Cap forum. Im not looking to stir up the thread..but I wanted to prove that this cap does exist having the same style and white piping.



seen here in a brand new thread........... Post Your Best of 2015!

Thankyou everyone for your patience. Regards Larry

Apropos the document that Mr. d'Alquen found from 1932, this item from a couple of years later.

Interesting. I've never actually seen or heard of an SS uniform that could be attributed to Boss, although as Adrian mentions early on, his marking can certainly be found in other FACTORY produced civil uniforms of the TR period. I've never seen any hand-tailored uniform of any variety that could be attributed to him either...
