Waffen-SS EM/NCO M42 field blouse

Waffen-SS EM/NCO M42 field blouse in field worn condition. The tunic is a rare variant made in a loosely woven wool which is probably a foreign captured material. This material is loosely woven and does not contain much fluff to the wool making it look worn right from the factory. The garment is a typical M42 example with 5 front closing buttons and two belt hook holes. The garment is dated 1944 under the size markings. The garment is in good, worn condition with a number of period repairs in the collar and sleeve ends. Nice base for restoration!
