WWII German Officer’s Horsehide Leather Trench Coat – (42 Long)

Designed for high-ranking officers, this WWII German officer’s trench coat exemplifies the resilience and functionality of mid-century military tailoring. Crafted from chrome-tanned horsehide, it provided exceptional weather resistance and durability during long patrols and frontline operations. The unique deep green hue, a result of the chrome tanning process, distinguishes this coat from others, reflecting both authority and wartime practicality.

The coat’s double-breasted construction features wide lapels, a belted waist, and a full-length cut, blending commanding style with functional design. Its heavy moleskin and quilted lining offer insulation and structural reinforcement, a true reflection of WWII German military tailoring. The original belt, buckles, and metal buttons remain intact, underscoring its historical accuracy and exceptional craftsmanship.

Professionally cleaned and conditioned, the leather remains supple yet strong, preserving its natural patina and deep green hue. The moleskin lining, while showing signs of age, retains its integrity. The hardware, including the original belt and buttons, are in perfect working order, and the stitching remains secure throughout. Light wear and distressing enhance the coat’s vintage appeal, providing an authentic look that highlights its storied past.
