While still heavily influenced by their big brother in the east, the East Germans simply couldn’t help themselves but be German and say “what if we could make our uniforms more complicated for the lulz?” So they adopted Strichtarn, contrasting to the dull & gray uniforms from over the wall. The now-iconic “rain” pattern was originally developed in Warsaw-Pact Poland, and became a highly proliferated camo in Czechoslovakia & Bulgaria as well.
While somewhat ineffective as a camouflage outside the Great Plains, or Angola, Strichtarn can work extremely well as a fashionable urban surplus enjoyer’s camouflage. Or if you are trying to equip a rebel force on the African Subcontinent. With its numerous pockets and simple yet rugged construction it’s perfect for impersonating everyone's favorite flavor of Germany, Holy Roman Empire aside, while still looking like you have an idea of what fashion looks like.

Sizes
We've translated the native European sizing to God-Fearing American sizing. Enjoy <3
Condition
Shirts are in great condition with no tears, rips, holes, or cuts. May have minor professional repairs to fabric.
Fits to size, is very comfortable and has enough pockets to rival my cargo pants. Great combination with my DDR gloves, ruck and belt. Just waiting for KStore to sell those Star Wars Rebel helmets and I'll have a complete set.
This is a sick uniform top. I use mine for trucking and hiking. Has 2 breast pockets. A picket on each upper arm AND….are you ready? It has a hidden pocket that is actually: a Luger holster!! between the 2nd from the top and 3rd button that acts as a great phone holder if you so choose! Being surplus it has that nice musty smell! Some buttons may need a trailer to redo em but that comes with the territory
