Waffen-SS 'Gebirgsjäger' Canvas Styrian Gaiters

Waffen-SS 'Gebirgsjäger' Canvas Gaiters (Gamaschen).

As a result of concerns about leather shortages regulations in early 1940 prescribed the lace-up ankle boots for wear in the field and additional regulations in August 1940, introduced new canvas gaiters to be worn with the lace-up ankle boots. This is a pair of Styrian style gaitors as used by both Wehrmacht (Heer) and Waffen-SS Mountain Troops.

The gaitors are made of a green canvas construction with webbing straps and re-inforcement. The gaiters both nicely marked with RB.Nr.0/0250/1348 and size 2 marked.

Matching pair in very good condition !!
