- Sturm does not make uniforms anymore. These old repro's can be found if you look for a while.
If they are well aged you can achieve a nice ''been there'' look without any weathering.
Very nice video and presentation my friend! Keep up the good work! Best regards from Norway :)
Always a thoughtful and professional presentation. Many thanks.
I was fortunate enough to buy a Janke made Fleigerbluse almost fifteen years ago ! I’d recommend them to everyone if they weren’t so expensive and obscure.
The Sturm Fleigerbluse is an excellent choice , I’ve had one before that I tailored, aged and replaced all buttons and insignia with original examples, afterwards you couldn’t recognize that it was a Sturm reproduction, it looked and felt like an original !
Great video, sir, I always enjoy seeing what you’re up to.
I was lucky to purchase some Elsenau items, not sure if they’re still making anything at the moment. Their website has been down for months.
He is still working but overloaded with work. His stuff is just really good.
Agreed, there’s a reason he’s overworked. 😂 @@dergrenadier
The air force tunics looks very similar to the M1915s the Germans were issued in WW1.
Leider macht Sturm nix mehr 😢
Question, have you tried Epic Militaria? quite divided between buying an HBT Heer from Epic and Gavin.
Where is the best place to buy repro luftwaffe fliegerblouse and trousers and badges/shoulder boards?
Question about the collars, how do you get the open collar look? I cant seem to find any information about how to do that. I have an M36 and it doesnt really do the open collar look that you see in late war uniforms
Soak the uniform in lukewarm water. Press the collar down the way you like it and let it dry. Also works for al wool manupilation like shaping caps and stretching pockets
@@dergrenadier does it work in gavin wool? I heard gavin wool is kinda different from others
@@pragerbest7848 yeah that will work
From what shop did you buy that jump smock and is it any good?
Old sturm. Their grunmeliert smocks are usable. You can only get them second hand
@@dergrenadierWhat is your opinion of Luftwaffe supplies shop?I hear very mixed opinion about that shop.
@@chrishansen4541 they have nice insignia. Their uniforms are gavin but custom ordered. So for example the trousers are longer which is more correct than you would get from gavin directly. Depends on what you get for the rest
@@dergrenadierI didn't know they get their stuff from Gavin.Thank you for the information.
can fallschimjager ride a bike? if yes why?
Yes. Because they functioned as normal fighting units later in the war.
