1940s Striwa German Officer’s Trench Coat- Large (42-44)

More than just outerwear, this 1940s Striwa trench coat is a commanding presence—built for officers, designed for endurance, and finished with an unmistakable sense of authority. Made in Germany during the height of the Second World War, this was a coat for those in high command—Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS officers, senior government figures—individuals whose gear needed to be as formidable as their role.

Crafted from dense, pebble-grain goatskin, the leather is weighty and richly patinated, with a burnished surface that reflects both function and distinction. The internal waist belt, secured with original steel buckles, acts as the primary closure—a rare detail that sets this piece apart. A detachable moleskin lining, superbly preserved, provides warmth and structure without compromising movement.

Every detail is intact—from the woven leather cuff buttons to the reinforced front flap pockets and high storm collar with throat latch. The original Striwa Dresden label remains stitched inside, anchoring its provenance and elevating its collector appeal.

Professionally cleaned and conditioned, the leather remains supple yet structured, with creasing, abrasions, and natural tonal shifts that speak to its long and storied life. All original buttons are present, and the lining, though showing some age-related discolouration, is in excellent condition overall.
