Provenance Note
This jacket originates from the Nationale Volksarmee (NVA), East Germany?s army during the Cold War. The ?G52? marking reflects the East German sizing system, indicating a tall men?s size with approx. 40?42" chest. East German surplus garments are prized for their distinctive tailoring, hidden plackets, and functional pocket designs. Today, they are sought after by both military collectors and fashion enthusiasts, valued as authentic relics of mid-20th century history.
