How to choose the size?
The price is for a jacket and pants at once (that is, for a suit). The camouflage shade is completely the same on the jacket and pants. You can buy a jacket or pants separately from us, see the Related Products below.
The size of the jacket fits the size of the pants, German winter jackets were of three sizes: small, medium and large; we did the same. German winter jackets are made wide enough not to fetter a soldier and to fit different body-shapes; this must be understood if you are not buying a jacket for reenactment, but for civilian use.
German soldiers in winter suits with the white side turned outwards. Please note that the jackets and trousers are wide enough.
You can choose the size online. You will need a flexible meter or at least a rope. Measure similar winter clothing that suits you.

Size of the parka | Russian, international size | Chest around | Plain chest | Sleeve length | Back height | Shoulder | The width of the shoulders |
I | 48-50, S-M | up to 100 (110) | 66 | 60 | 75 | 17 | 53 |
II | 52-54, L-XL | up to 110 (120) | 70 | 64 | 78 | 19 | 57 |

Size description for the pants:
• Suitable clothing size — approximate compliance with general sizes, to start with. Next, you need to check the rest of the measurements! Several sizes of clothing are included in one pants size, since winter uniforms are usually large, and the difference of 1 standard size is not noticeable.
• Max. waist — the girth below the rib, but above the navel, where the Germans worn the waistbelt. The first number is measurement on the naked body (in brackets, it was measured over the shirt + sweater + jacket, as it is customary to wear these pants). The number shows the maximum waist, that is, your measurement should be less than in the table, to 5 or more centimeters. Pants should not sit tight at the waist! There should be a gap at the waist, which, if necessary, is tightened with a lace-tie on the back. If there is no gap, then it will be difficult to bend down in your pants.
• Width of the pants on the upper edge — the pants are lying flat on the floor, you measure along the back half of the pants (it is wider than the front one). You can compare it with any winter pants, but please remember: these pants do not have a waist, they are tightened at the waist with a flap. This measurement is only needed here for reference. The pants will fit almost any large waist, as they have no waistband.
• Pant leg length at the inner seam — the length of the pant leg from the "fork" to the bottom, this is the most important size for determining the height, you need to compare with other pants that you wear. "Burdocks" at the bottom of the pants, which should lie on top of the foot, are not taken into account when measuring the length. We don't have any other height sizes!
• Pants full length — the full length of the pants along the outer seam.
All measurements are in centimeters. Devide numbers to 2,54 to have inches.
Size of the pants | Suitable clothing size RUS/EUR (INT) | Waist maximum naked (and over the tunic), cm | Width of the pants on the upper edge, cm | Pant leg length at the inner seam, cm | Pants full length on the side seam, cm |

Description
Double-sided eversionable suit (camouflage Swamp and white color, respectively). It is sold only as a whole suit — the shade of camouflage is completely the same on the jacket and pants. You can buy a separate jacket or pants here, but as another product.
Camouflage is a cotton fabric, the white side is made of dense blended 70/30% fabric that gets wet bad.
We offer a responsibly copied example from German samples. Templates developed "from scratch" by order and under the control of the shop "Replica". Items were sewn at the factory by professionals using serious sewing equipment. This high-quality copy is designed and sold in the shop "Replica" only.
We accurately followed all original details during reproducing. High-quality buttons are sewn, buttonholes' treatment as on German originals. The model features straight-cut pocket flaps and knee reinforcements. Pockets are accessible from both winter and summer side. Pocket valves are 4-pointed, as usual for the winter uniform of the Wehrmacht. Glass (plastic) buttons on both sides (black and white respectively), and shaped granular aluminum — on the pockets, Feldgrau color painted. The trouser leg ends have long side slits with a tape to wear over boots. Pants are worn over a summer uniform, held on suspenders. The waist is adjustable with a drawstring at the back.
The products are marked with the ink stamps of the manufacturer and the size according to the German system: I (small, for 48-50), II and III (large).
Historical reference.
There were some variations of "Marsh" camouflage (original name: Sumpftarn, also Swamp in English). The first appeared in 1943, it was essentially a "Splinter" with blurred edges and warmer color scheme. At the same time appeared a "blurred Splinter" in standard colors. And to 1944 "Swamp" began to be shapeless. We used this type here.
