BACKGROUND of German jackets and coats in WW II: the jacket/greatcoat was a standard uniform item worn by all ranks, with minor variations, it followed the basic design of the Imperial German army’s greatcoat. During WW II, the German armed forces utilised at least thirteen different styles of jackets/greatcoats with numerous variations and intended purposes. Of these assorted jackets/greatcoats, officers and officials with officer ranks were entitled to wear an optional leather version of the standard greatcoat. Officers and certain senior NCOs were responsible for purchasing their own uniforms and were allotted a clothing allowance. Generally speaking, officers bought good quality when buying uniform items privately, but they also had the choice of buying their uniforms directly from military clothing depots, both civilian and military models of the leather greatcoat were available.
