West German Army 1960s Tracksuit Jacket
WGA1960TJ
The West German Army tracksuit jacket was issued through the 1960s and 1970s, and it is exactly what it says — the Bundeswehr's PT kit.
It features elasticated cuffs and collar, cut light in a cotton and synthetic blend in solid dark blue, with the Bundeswehr eagle on the chest. Sportswear made by an army, which is why it looks better than sportswear made for sport.
Measured flat, it runs 22" pit to pit and fits a regular medium figure — GrNr 5 — with sleeve lengths of 24" and a collar to hem of 26 inches.
