SS Tunic? any opinions?

I have the chance to purchase this tunic, the dealer advises the cuff title is not original to the tunic but the rest is ok, any views on this as this is the first SS one i have come across?

Hi, and welcome to the forum!

Sorry a complete and utter fake tunic made by Janke with poor quality fake insignia.

Cheers, Ade.

thanks for the comment, i read your post on the cuffs and worked out its no good, are there a couple of major things on the tunic that show it is no good for future reference? i read the post on the wavey stiching on the collor is that typical?

The big give away signs on the basic tunic is the material used:

Simply far too good quality wool with no re-cycled "shoddy" elements.

The lining is incorrect in pattern for a pure SS tunic which this purports to be.

Size Ink stamp font used.

Bad SS-BW markings have been scrubbed out.

Thanks for reading the cuff title article

Cheers, Ade.
