The "Leiber" pattern has really exist, also winter jackets and trousers exists. How Sheik allready said, winter clothing was often not longer reversible at the end of the war (exceptions prove the rule). But the worst crime, is the copy of the camouflage pattern ! At the first view, it looks like the "Leiber" design, but on the second view.... it is pure fantasy (like almost all camouflage from the Far East). I must close my eyes, it hurts me to much.... Arrrgh ! :cry: Prof. Schick would turn around in his grave. The only good copy of the "Leiber" pattern is availabale at Zeugmeisterei and Tuhringen-militaria.

Depends what you want to do and what front you are doing! Liebermuster seems to be mostly worn by units fighting in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Austria! No good for a West front impression!

Not quite true! Some flak units were issued with it! It cant be said with total certainty that no one else was issed with it in the theatres I mentioned, as a lot a late war paper work and photos were destroyed, in the end we depend on the victors!

True, lets hope that more photostocks like the ones full of Leibermuster from Bohemia 1945 will be discovered.
