The Luftwaffe was the Wehrmach air force that was established between 1935 and 1945 during the Nazi Germany.
It was one of three divisions of the military of the National Socialist German Empire, along with the Army and Navy.

"Luftwaffe" served as Germany's main military force throughout World War II.

When it first began, it introduced world-class aviation technology and tactics, and quickly expanded it.
When the war began, Luftwaffe became the core of blitz tactics and took part in many important battles in the early days of the war, including Poland (1939), France (1940), and Battle of Britain (1940).

However, the defeat at Battle of Britain became a strategic turning point, and it began to lose power afterwards due to increased Allied aviation power and lack of resources.
At the end of the war, Luftwaffe lost a great influence and was dismantled with the defeat of Germany in 1945.

In the Luftwaffe,Introducing the "Drillich Work Jacket", which was provided and worn as work clothes on base during World War II.

What is Drillich?It is a German word for weaving, and is HBT (Herringbone Twill) refers to fabric.
Especially in the German army during World War II.Due to its excellent durability, it is the summer seasonIt was widely used, from work clothes to summer combat uniforms.

Initially, the work and training uniforms were used in unbleached colors, but as war began, it was apparently adopted as summer combat uniforms to be worn in combat zones due to their comfort and practicality.
This shows that even in the German army, German navy and German air forces, it was worn not only in work clothes but also in the summer for a wide range of purposes.

Originally designed for work and training, it has since been improved with more combat-friendly colors and shapes, and has continued to develop according to practical needs on the field.

It is said that the German army's "Drillich" was produced with reference to the French army's "Bourgeron", so both the details and the texture are very similar.

The short length makes the waist stand out, and while retaining the remnants of the era when the company once emphasized functionality as a military uniform, it has a sophisticated design that blends in beautifully with modern fashion.

The flask flask is minimal, but its unique design tightens the overall impression of the jacket.
This style, which has been made with as little decoration as possible, has a simple yet strong presence, and can be said to have an excellent harmony that blends in naturally with any outfit.

The pocketless design also gives off an even more unique personality due to its simplicity.

The armpits are equipped with both chrysanthemum hole-shaped ventilation holes and slit-shaped ventilation holes to prevent stuffiness inside.

The sleeves are also made in a three-dimensional way with a front swing, so while it is a military item, it also has an elegant look like a tailored jacket.

The neck comes with a buttoned "chin strap" that prevents wind from entering and is designed to be worn with the collar raised.

There's a huge difference between having a chin strap and not having one.
The excitement and atmosphere when worn with the collar up is exceptional.

In addition, stamps from the time can be visually visible and vividly visible, and in the German army, many individuals have a total of five numbers stamped on them.

-The number on the top left indicates the length to the waist or the length to the tail.
- The number on the top right indicates the size of the collar or the length around the collar.
-The center number indicates the length of the chest width.
-The numbers at the bottom left are the total length.
-The number on the bottom right shows the length of the sleeves.

All of these are expressed in centimeters.

The fabric is made of "linen fabric", which is highly regarded in the vintage market.
The unique texture of the fabric, which is comparable to French linen and sways with each movement, is also why it is so popular.

As expected, linen fabrics from this era are exceptionally good so that amateurs can tell it, and are highly regarded, which is said to be impossible to reproduce in modern times, so the fabric alone is worth it.

Not only is it rare, but it is also a very cool piece when viewed from the perspective of a fashion item, so I hope you will wear it without worry.

Size notation is "39/42/84/59/59"
I think it falls under the "S" size in Japanese size.

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is small, so if you have a small figure, you can wear it without any problems.

It is in a dead stock condition, so it is perfect and there is no tear or other damage, but there is some dirt that appears to have been exposed to long-term storage.
Of course, there are no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so you can still wear it without any problems.

It seems that German military items have been particularly attracting attention in recent years, but there are very few existing German military items, including historical background, and it seems that supply has not kept up to demand. .

The German army has a certain number of enthusiastic fans, so there is no doubt that it is an archival piece that even collectors will never let go of.

This is a perfect piece not only for a wardrobe, but also as a collection item and design source.
This is a rare item that is rarely available at our shop, so if you are looking for it, don't miss this opportunity.
