Just acquired this before christmas. This one has me stumpted. It has a dark Brown color with a coarse wool. All buttons marked bsw with the three leaf clover designed. IT shows where collar tabs were removed, and appears to have had only one sew in shoulderboard on the Left shoulder. Size markings 44 46 100 71 64 33 I . Exterior pockets liner in blue grey HBT?, Inside a light olive made of a softer matierial, posibly rayon. Any Idea what this is from?

H Brian..i saw this tunic, when it was listed as did a few of my collector friends..they feel it is not a wartime tunic, it may be in fact an immediate potwar item..the colour does not ring true for any Third Reich organization..

Another option is that this has been re-dyed post war, and was originally a service tunic of some sort..any markings or tags?, or any indications of a re-dye for civilian wear?
