It looks like a Sturm one, from experience the quality isn't very good. The 'grey' side is ok for colour but the 'brown' side isn't like an original zelts I have. The one made by Zib militaria is a better copy, I believe Richard underwood stock them now.

I wouldn't buy one of these.

Yes - it looks like a very poor copy. Please don't waste any more time on this sample, find some photographs of original ones to see what they're like. This copy is very bad, the grey side looks like shit too.

First side looks fine, the second looks terrible.

Get a bunch of originals and do a proper copy. They aren't exactly expensive.

The Zeltbahn pictured has pretty damn close colours. Depends what Zelt you compare it with though. When you take a look at the latewar variant, with brown painted aluminum buttons ( presumably Italian ) it looks very good.

The fabric, though is too thin, too closely woven with to fine threads. Thus it rolls up way thinner then the original. The stitching is ok, but not good enough on the buttons. The buttons should be painted brown it will look better.

It's hard to get a good idea of colour from digital pictures but there seems to be an error in the pattern

which I don't see in originals

The Zib militaria zelt is pretty good though.

Does the Zib one have the same terrible grommets the SS zelts they sell have? The SS have a nice print, for the money, but the grommets are quite frankly....poop.
