A piece of clothing chosen by soldiers themselves on the front lines of the Cold War.
This is a summer flight jacket that was used by soldiers in the former East German National People's Army (NVA) as a personally procured item. It is a very realistic military piece that was not provided by the military, but selected by the soldiers themselves according to the mission and climate, and worn in the field.
Part number "K 44" is the size notation according to the DDR standard at that time, and corresponds to approximately 165-170cm in height and 85-95cm in chest circumference. The navy and light green two-tone lining and light nylon-like shell are characteristic of NVA air force equipment from the 1950s to the 1970s.
The lightweight and windproof fabric is truly for summer to mid-season. The front has dual zipper and snap button construction, and the waist is equipped with a snap belt for adjustment, giving it a more authentic military construction than it appears. The cuffs are ribbed for a great fit. It also has diagonal zip pockets on both chests and inside pockets, and shines with its functionality-oriented design that would have been used in actual warfare.
The condition is very good, in beautiful condition with little signs of use. There is no noticeable damage or stains on the lining or exterior, and the zips and snaps work without any problems. This is a piece that can still be used for practical purposes.
This jacket, which gives a sense of the military culture of the eastern camp, which is different from the NATO bloc, is a very popular item as a "unique masterpiece "** that adds depth to military fashion. It is a very popular item as a "unique masterpiece "** that adds depth to military fashion.
