Looking good Stainer, a pic too, Steve 27752 will be happy! Where's the leather 'triangles' gone front the front of your jacket, thought all B15's had them?

My Wehrmacht Winter parka proving how well designed it is in the Arctic conditions we’re having at the minute. If it’s good enough for the Ostfront, it’s good enough for Ireland !
Sweet looking B-15C, and killer denim you're sporting there!
No mate. I didn’t post a pic but I’ll try to do that tomorrow.Hi Peter, did you post a pic? If yes, I think something’s gone wrong ‘’cos I can’t see it! And I would like to see a Wehrmacht winter Parker being worn in the current “weather”!
Cheers pal

There you go. After a few false starts I picked this one up a few months ago. It's a very cleverly designed, very warm parka. There's a double windflap and it is completely reversible to white for that Ardennes Offensive look. This one was made in the UK by Richard Underwood. It's a pretty good repro but there's a few small accuracy issues so I might invest in an At The Front parka for next Winter.Hi Peter, did you post a pic?

Nice coat, great find. If this was mine I’d consider getting it lined in black shearling to make it the ultimate winter coat. But it isn’t
Is it heavy to wear? I've a Schott leather pea-coat that weighs a ton when you pick it up although not so when you wear it!
