[~ 40's] WWⅡ GERMAN AFRIKA KORPS TROPICAL MOTORCYCLE COAT "DAK"

Made in 1941, it became the German African Corps "Tropical Motor Cycle Court".

It is the arrival of super special items.

German African Corps(Deutsches Afrikakorps = DAK) is an expedition in Germany, who was active on the North African front, during only two years from 1941 to 1943 during World War II.

The corps dispatched to support the Italian army in 1941 was conducted by General Erwin Rommel.
Elvin RonmelIt seems that it was known for its outstanding tactics and leadership.

However, in 1942, supplies supply issues and the pressure of the Allies increased, and the African Corps withdrew.
In 1943, the African Corps eventually surrendered to the Allies in Tunisia and ended their activities.

SuchGerman African CorpsThis is the introduction of "TROPICAL Motorcycle COAT", which was paid to motorcycle troops in the tropical region of North Africa.

It was also very popular among the troops with a stylish appearance, highly conservative, and was generally worn by non -motorcycle officials.

Because the number of surviving, both in Japan and overseas, is very small, there may be many first -time viewers.

Speaking of European Trial Motorcycle Court, I think the French models are famous and widely known.
The payment is the same for the "motorcycle unit", but it can be said that the atmosphere is completely different depending on the country / activity area that undertakes production.

At the top of the front, there are two buttons on the left and right.
Therefore, it is good to fasten the button to cover the body, and there are button holes on the left and right neck tips, so I think that you can fasten the button like a large lapel color.
I think that you can enjoy it in a different atmosphere, so I hope you can use it properly depending on the mood when you wear it.

A flap pocket of the exposed button is arranged in the middle of the front, and the right chest is also equipped with a diagonal slash pocket.

The overcoat has a lot of ventilations that enable air circulation, and a button is attached to the rear part so that you can move your feet more freely while riding a vehicle.

There is almost no lining inside, but there is a mesh inside the back of the back, maybe it has a role to prevent hot sunlight from the back, and at the same time to ensure ventilation from a large back flap.

It is also a point that can be evaluated that a "chin strap" is included assuming that it will prevent wind from entering and wearing a collar standing up.

The difference between the mud is that the chin strap is attached and the not attached.
The uplifting and atmosphere when worn with a collar is exceptional.

Inside, the stamps at the time were clearly confirmed, and the German army stamped a total of five numbers.

・ In the upper left number, the length to the waist or the length to the tail.
・ In the upper right number, the size of the collar or the length around the collar.
・ In the center number, the length of the chest width.
・ In the lower left number, the total length is long.
・ In the lower right number, the length of the sleeve.

It is said, and all of these are centimeter.

The flat -weaving "cotton linen" blend fabric with a relatively thin, lightweight and soft texture, which is assumed to be worn in the tropical region.
As mentioned above, it has a thin fabric feeling, so I think you can wear it in a wide range of seasons other than summer.

The intense A -line that spreads toward the hem is very beautiful and elegant when worn.
It is a beautiful silhouette that you can sigh, even from any angle.

Not only rarity but also as a fashion item, I think it is a very cool one, so I would like you to wear it without hesitation.

The size notation is "43/50/102 / 129/66"
I think it corresponds to "L ~ XL" in Japanese size.

Even if you look at the actual dimension value, it will be a large size, so I think that even a large body can wear it without any problems.
It looks like a military item, and it looks good to put it on with a large size.

It is originally made for overcoat applications assuming that it will be worn on the uniform.Basically, the sense of size is larger for any individual.
Since the armholes and width are plenty, I think that it is the first place that can be enjoyed by people of various body types.

Although there is a feeling of use such as the fabric peculiar, dirt, fraying, small hole, button deficiency, there is no major damage to wear, so you can still wear it.

In recent years, German items have been particularly attracting attention, but it seems that German items originally exist, including historical backgrounds, and it seems that supply to demand has not caught up. 。

Since it is a German army with a certain number of enthusiastic fans, there is no doubt that it is a drooling archbofiece that collectors do not let go.
Even more, it is easy to imagine that the number of balls is small, from 1941 to 1943 for only two years.

It is not a thing that can be bought if you pay money, but you can not make sure that you can get it in the future.

The first place as a wardrobe, as well as a collection item design source.
I think that it is a gem that you rarely see in Japan and overseas, so if you are looking for or who like unusual items, do not miss this opportunity.
