Ww2 German Schutzstaffel Black Trench Coat

WW2 German Schutzstaffel Black Leather Trench Coat – History, Style & Product Overview

The WWII German Schutzstaffel Black Leather Trench Coat is a staple in wartime films, documentaries, and period pieces that present very accurate military settings of that era. We see in these productions the black leather coat included as a staple element to play into the theme of authoritative military wear that characterized German officers at that time; thus, the image of the coat in film is very well known. Today we see this WWII coat style mainly in historical reenactments, film set design, and by collectors for its authentic look. The black and white of the leather, the structure of the design, and the long length made the German trench coat of WWII style stand out on film, also in cold weather scenes in which the long leather outerwear served as a symbol of rank, authority, and protection from the harsh European winter.

Product Specification:

From a design point of view, this Schutzstaffel coat is a take on traditional structure, which we modernized at the same time. In terms of what the customer gets, they can pick between natural leather or vegan leather based on their choice, pocket size, and ethical issues. Also we see a soft viscose underlining, which is added to improve the feel, which in turn increases the wear time, a pro for those that are at cosplay events, reenactments, or film shoots. We put in a classic shirt-style collar that gives that sharp, period-accurate look and also the double-breasted front, which is a touch of the military style that does double duty by also improving the insulating quality. Full-length sleeves for complete coverage and an adjustable belt at the waist to fine-tune the fit and give a very defined look. Also, we looked at adding functionality by including many useful pockets, and we finished it off in the classic black, which we think is the best way to go if you are going for that Black Trench Coat look that the German SS used to have.
