Spearhead Parka and winter Trousers.

Post by Kurt Schulte »

does anyone own the parka or trousers from Ebay's spearhead militaria. How is the cunstruction and materials used? Is the Tan & Water pattern at least decent. Most important does it use a wool lining or is it the poofy poly much like Sturm. I have a Sturm parka that I quickly sold as it was pretty terrible. Im not looking for the best, but something at least half decent.
Thanks

I had one of each....was then under the impression that Sturm bought their parks from Spearhead :D

Anyone else know about that? I wish I could remember the tag on my sturm parka from Hessen and what it said. I would email spearhead directly but worried that they may just tell me what I want to hear.

Anyone else have one? and can say a little more about them?

I know that Sturm didn't actually buy from spearhead, but they were almost identical. They do have the foamy stuffing, but once sprayed, will remain waterproof for light rain. For the money you're spending, it's decent. But I'd rather go buy a much better quality one with the real wool lining for double the money.

E-mail Barry, he's quite honest, and sometimes he'll do alterations for an extra 8 bucks if you ask him nicely. If it's a really good idea, he'll even stock it. The gabardine Luftwaffe breeches he sells were started up by my own request...
