Luftwaffe Issued dark grey leather flight set
Very rare issued dark grey leather flight set from the late days of the war.
The jacket shows overall wear, but remains in good conditon with no damage inside or outside.
The sleeves have aluminum zippers by 'Zipp' and the front is buttoned with glass buttons
The pants are basically mint and complete with suspenders. They have a combination of white 'Ri-Ri' and brass 'Zipp' zippers.
All zippers on jacket and pants are fully functional.
Large size well suited for display, the jacket has a chest size of 117cm.
When I got this set it had a repro breast eagle which I removed. It is very easy to see where the original eagle was once applied. Apart from the stitch marks, the leather is also darker, since it has not been worn here.
As often seen with these sets, the wiring and plugs have been removed. This was done for various reasons both wartime and post-war. In my opinion the modifications on this set was done wartime. I base this opinion on the fact, that the area where the plugs have been removed from the sleeves show the same wear as the rest of the jacket, whereas the area where the eagle was applied does not show this wear. And I doubt anyone would wear it after the war with an eagle in place.
I have adjusted the price to reflect this, and with unmodified jackets alone usually going for substantially more than the offering price of this set, it is a good chance to aquire a very rare set that would look awesome on display!
