UBB.threads Forums Uniform & Accessories German Military Uniform Forum SS camo smock question

Have a quesiton for those knowledgable and conversant in SS smocks..has anyone encounterd good ss smocks..oak.or other of the 2nd type with hip pockets and foliage loops with the drawstring eyelets machine sewn in the same manner as is seen on the holes of the belt support ramps on wool tunics? I've seen many pictures of them "hand sewn"..and my beaver book is not realidly available....any help greatly appreciated.unfortunatly..i have no pics to share.but the machine sewing is I'd say identical to the belt hook holes sewing..thanks for the help! If this is something one would rather not discuss on the forum for fear of the repro lurkers..please email me..thanks

m gong to revise my description of the eyelet machine stitching.it almost looks like it was done on the same type of procedure as the gimp cording on the button holes..any help appreciated.

Hi Scott,

I have not encountered these kind of stitching on smocks yet. The smocks have a more loose type of stitching as far I have seen.

Thanks Fred!
