A Testament to Wartime Engineering. Designed for resilience in unforgiving conditions, this WWII German “Miloschutz” leather jacket stands as a striking example of wartime necessity fused with utilitarian craftsmanship. Issued to personnel in critical non-combat roles—such as factory workers, civil defense teams, and military dispatch riders—it was engineered to provide protection against the elements while maintaining a professional and authoritative appearance.
Crafted from robust, vegetable-tanned horsehide leather, it offered both insulation and durability for heavy use. The moleskin lining, a hallmark of German military garments, provided added warmth, making it ideal for long hours in unpredictable weather. Its distinctive storm collar and reinforced storm cuffs exemplify the practical designs characteristic of wartime outerwear, ensuring maximum coverage against wind and rain.
Professionally restored, the leather remains supple without sacrificing its timeworn character. The moleskin lining shows only light wear consistent with age but remains intact and fully functional. All original buttons and fasteners are secure and functional, with no major repairs needed. The jacket carries the legacy of wartime engineering—strength, functionality, and authenticity preserved.
