Original armband. Almost all seen for sale are unworn with paper tag. Quite a lot of dealers list them as SA sports armband because of its design. But as stated its for the SA Wehrmannschaften

Here's a bit of background
A special Hitler decree of 19.1.139 charged the SA with the pre and post military training of the entire male population between the ages of 18 and 65 to include those considered unfit for military duty. As a result the SA Wehrmannschaften was created. It was an SA controlled compulsorily conscripted Home Guard made up of fomer members of the Hitler Youth partially disabled but still considered fir for service plus older men not yet called up for military service

Regards
Bob
