SOLD

RARE! Original German SA (Brown Shirts) Uniform Certified. Brown was to become the official color of the N.S.D.A.P. and S.A. by circumstance rather than design. A large stockpile of discounted, surplus WWI tropical brown shirts and fabric, intended for wear in East Africa, were located in Austria in 1924 and purchased by the Nazis as a temporary measure to bring uniformity of dress to their party members. In November of 1926 the brown shirt was officially introduced, and retained, as the basic uniform item for the N.S.D.A.P. and S.A., and was eventually adopted by other political organizations such as the H.J., D.A.F., and the N.S.K.K.  A Light tan cotton twill construction shirt with a five-button front closure. Shirt features two pleated, patch, breast pockets with scalloped flaps with removable buttons. Sleeves have five tapering darts and fold back French cuffs with dual removable button closure. Darted horizontal waistband with six stitched in, pebbled steel, belt support hooks and single cotton belt loop to reverse center. Original German WWII SA NCO Scharführer Brown Shirt Tunic with Armband. This is a great example of a Sturmabteilung “Brown Shirt” for the rank of Scharführer, or Squad Leader.
