SS tunic - fake?

[FALLSCHIRMJAGER]

Hello all you tunic experts,i am new to this forum so i would appreciate your input on this jacket. I myself am only into metal badges so i can only go on instinct on this and i am 98% sure it,s wrong. The cut of the lining seams incorrect to others i have seen,there is no rear "backside" opening in the skirt(MMM) and all the buttons have different manufacturer's codes + a fair bit of dirt behind them,maybe they are ground dug relics? Anyway have a look and ignore the INFANTRY ASSAULT BADGE and SILVER WOUND BADGE as i put them on the loops, cheers guys!

Hi, and welcome to the forum!

It is a Latvian made fake. Note the worn ribbed look to the material, very distinctive.

Cheers, Ade.
