WW2 German M40 Field Grey Wool Tunic - Premium

WW2 German M40 Field Grey Wool Tunic - Premium

Part of our Premium line of WW2 German uniforms, offering a superior finish and colour of wool as well as cut and finish. All of the small details such as markings on buttons and buckles to material and thread colour come together to set this range apart from other reproductions on the market.

In 1938 the M36 was updated into the M40 uniform, most noticeably changing the collars to Field Grey. Featuring woollen construction, cotton liner and historically accurate sizing stamps. Field Grey buttons, tunic hook mounting and removable shoulder boards as you would expect on an M40 tunic, all in a high-quality wool with an excellent reproduction of Feldgrau.

There is much discussion among reenactors as to the best material to use in woollen uniforms, from those who prefer a pure wool construction to various blends with polyester and more. For our Premium Uniform range, we have settled on a 70% wool, 30% polyester blend. Made to spec from the start, we use quality wool that hasn't been recycled from another process, before dying to an accurate shade with a polyester blend which matches the weight and feel of the material. With these managed steps and materials we are left with a repeatable quality and finish without the large colour variations between batches sometimes seen in other uniforms. We are confident these uniforms use some of the best commercially produced field grey wool material available.

• 5 pebbled Field Grey buttons on the front
• Mounting for collar liner (available separately)
• Removable white piped shoulder boards
• Quality Field Grey wool material and cotton liner
• 4 external pockets and 1 internal bandage pocket

Overall these are sure to fulfil all your reenactment and collecting needs.
