I'd like to see better pics however, based upon what I see they appear to be strongly suspect..possibly older Jankes...the size of the hbt triangles is consistent withtheir..andother pants..however.. they are not one looker originals in my opinion. They appear to have been washed.. Some of the older aged Jankes are very convincing..Ive seen them in some very large and experienced collectors collections...but if you hold a real set next to the Jankes and other repros the differences are readily apparent. I dont want to say 100 percent repros...as holding in hand and inspecting weave..weight, feel of the material is paramount..but I dont get a great feeling about them..just my opinion based upon whats presented.

Thanks Scott,

I very much apreciate your comments.Ihave some doubts too,but that SS stuff is a real mine field.I was lucky to aquire a nice original m44 peadot tunic,so I was hoping to find a nice pair of trousers to complete it.But I think I have to search further....................

regards,

Etienne

Hi, I have 4 repro items (trousers, panzer wrapper and two jackets) made from exactly the same cloth as yours. The originals have much smaller herringbone triangles, what makes the basic difference.
