100% Original This is a hard to find taylor made WW2 German Kriegsmarine 4 pockets leather jacket. Very good quality and durable materials. LEATHER SHELL Nice black leather pretty well preserved. Light color wear on some edges (check photos) and on the bottom of the back of the jacket, but jacket looks just great and authentic. There are also two pinhols in left side of the collar, probably from a pin/badge.
LINING Khaki/feldgrau thick and soft COTTON LINING. Sleeves' lining is made from a sinthetic or atlas or sateen fabric. Lining has some signs of wear - more visible around the armpit where the cotton & sleeves' lining are sewed together. Interior chest pocket is also present.No holes in the pockets. (collar's leather is just fine - the blue reflection is from my camera - photo #5) Original BUTTONS are sturdy fixed to reinsforment leather straps, except the button that's behind the right side of the collar, which is a bit loose. Overall jacket is in EXCELLENT condition considering its age and the fact it was used in WW2. Leather maybe needs some grease and after that it will be a FANTASTIC WEARABLE addition to any WW2 German Kriegsmarine or leather jacket collection.
