This is a late war anorak with Italian camouflaged cloth on the outside. You will find the majority of these in unissed condition because few were issued. Mike Beaver's camouflage book has a picture of a Waffen-SS soldier wearing one of these during the Battle of Berlin in 1945. This is an original piece as I have not yet seen anybody making reproductions (yet). I put a photo of an Italian camouflaged jacket on the REQUEST thread if you want to see that.
