M40 field grey greatcoats. Shoulder boards and breast eagle must be worn on greatcoats. No collar patches are allowed on the greatcoat.

Zeltbahn
Any army camo zeltbahn is okay, like splinter or plain grey.


D) FOOTWEAR
Ankle Boots
Stiefel
Swedish ankle boots are ideal, but modern British DMS boots are ok when you start. We however prefer reproduction German ankle boots or the early Bundeswehr ankle boots. The best ones are obtained here: www.zeugmeisterei.com . Do not wear boots with stitched 'toecaps'. It is also perfectly acceptable to wear socks rolled over the tops of you ankle boots. These can either be standard German socks or 'civilian' type 'grey' socks.
