Description
Our German M40 Field Grey Wool Tunic is a must-have for any German Soldier portrayal. Benefitting from an 80% wool material, the jacket looks and feels authentic, giving that feeling every portrayal must have. The tunic has a generic 5-buttoned front, which is plastic capped and textured to make the tunic easy to remove in all conditions. It also has 4 front pockets – perfect for pocket litter, the bible or a picture of a special someone from back home. These tunics also come with white pipped shoulder boards that can easily be replaced.
The M40 Tunic itself was first seen in 1940, and by the following year, they were the most commonly worn uniform by German troops. Their introduction removed the unnecessary shoulder straps and darkened colour creating a uniformed uniform. Unlike our M43 design, this does have pleated pockets as they did not need to save materials.
A must-have for anyone looking for a precise portrayal of a WW2 German Soldier – providing excellent quality and value for money.
