Thought it best to ask the more experienced guys out there before making the purchase, is this a allright starter kit for a basic WWII german uniform?
Ordering tomorrow from Militaria-net:
M43 Ski Cap £20
M40 Tunic with chest eagle and Heer Em collar tabs(no rank) and M40 trousers £110
Future orders:
Jack boots, Black £50
Belt + heer buckle £30
MP40 Mag pouchX2 £30
Leather Y-Straps £30
Black leather Gloves £10
Looks good to me. I wouldn't bother with the gloves though - generally only officers wore leather gloves. If you really want gloves, grey wool ones would be best.















You've got nothing to ein, zwei, drei, vier
I more often than not wear gloves with everything for comfort, but will keep that in mind (they'd be more for cold days anyway n not getting shot in the fingers X3)
A breadbag might be a handy addition but otherwise thats everything you need to start. 
Aye for now I'm going for the basics to make it usable, then build up on it. I only make £50 a week I can spenddue to unemployment maintime, n my volenteer work at swwg is, obviousely, unpaid hehe.
Breadbag, entrenching tool n all that will come once my compo comes through ![]()
Sounds good
Jackboots are definitely the way forward. Mine are the most comfortable boots I own and have been since day 1.
Does the cap come with an eagle?
negative as they didnt have a plain eagle, only the eagle with wreath, or SS cap insignia, but I can get one cheap enough no doubt.
Though till I get my jackboots, I do have knee high leather boots I "Could" use.. allthough the shins are steel plated ^^;;
I'm sure we can sort you out with something. I have a pair of low boot gaiters you can borrow for Alsos
Thanks :3 hopefully I'll have my full kit and a weapon by then, but if I dont, they'll be handy to use with my normal boots to try n make them a lil more authentic looking
Well, my Tunic, Trousers, Cap, insignias and Boots are on their way
once it's all here, will try getting a photo done
