Germany, SA. A Wehrmannschaft Uniform, with RZM Labels

(SA-Wehrmannschaft Rock und Hose). A Sturmabteilung (SA) Wehrmannschaft uniform, consisting of:

1. A service tunic, constructed of olive-drab wool cloth. It features a turned-down collar with a light brown cotton blended cloth underlay, reinforced with machine-stitched darts. The cuff of each sleeve has a hidden vertical slash which closes with two brown bakelite buttons. Four pockets are set into the breast flaps, with the upper pockets pleated and closed with scalloped flaps perforated with reinforced buttonholes, while the lower pockets close with identical flaps. The interior is partially encompassed by a multi-piece light brown cotton blended cloth liner which accommodates a bandage pocket at the lower right breast, in addition to integral belt hook straps. The left side strap retains an intact Reichszeugmeisteri (RZM) label correctly issued for the SA Wehrmann Rock (tunic), bearing a maker’s code of “D5/38212”. Dark grey rayon reinforcements are stitched onto the upper chest, while the back is stamped with a mark of “50”. The tunic measures approximately 43 cm across the shoulders, with an arm length of 56 cm, and an overall length of 76 cm (when folded on a flat surface). While two bakelite buttons are set into the upper interior to meet hidden collar straps, no other buttons are present on the tunic, and remnant stitching in applicable spots may indicate previous removal, or guides for future buttons (suggesting a factory-incomplete/unissued example). Otherwise demonstrating only minor signs of material fatigue, the tunic remains in a near extremely fine condition.

2. A matching pair of breech-style trousers, constructed of an identical olive-drab wool cloth with a pronounced whipcord weave. Two integral belts set into the back just below the waistband meeting functional magnetic metal buckles. Side pockets are set into the front of each leg with diagonal slashes closing with scalloped flaps perforated with reinforced buttonholes, in turn meeting brown bakelite buttons. Additional pockets are set into the upper front and back right leg, both closing with identical scalloped flaps and bakelite buttons. A French fly closes with five brown bakelite buttons on the right meeting an equal number of reinforced buttonholes on the left. Vertical slashes set into each ankle are flanked by five sets of dual eyelets reinforced with magnetic metal grommets, retaining period original drawstrings. A partial brown cotton blended cloth liner surrounds the waistband and composes the compartments of the pockets. The underside of one pocket retains an RZM label correctly issued for SA-Wehrmann Hose (trousers), and is marked with an illegible maker’s code. The trousers measure approximately 42 cm across the waistband, with an overall length of 95 cm. Demonstrating no evident damage or wear, they remain in an extremely fine condition.
