Re: Real or not

Looks post war construction to me and not Luftwaffe.

Does it have any distinguishing stamps/ names tags on the liner??

Re: Real or not

The jacket is definitely not Luftwaffe and most likely not even WWII era. Looks too new.

Re: Real or not

If i were Luftwaffe, it would have had loops for the eagle and various medals. Also, it would have had shoulder boards removed, and loops made for the rank straps.

In this case, 100%, it was never used by anyone in the war.

Here is a nice example.
