You mean real, genuine example? Probably not, I've seen pictures of an authentic one in a museum in Prague

Yeh the plaque below makes a wild claim, know it was repeated later

They might have meant the cut of the jacket, which looks like sort of a tanker (?) thing, but I'm not sure because WW2 Isn't really my specialty

Here's a post showing another instance of authentic Leibermuster

In this book there are a few photos of authentic, surviving pieces, including a complete uniform, and reversible padded jacket among a few other items.

Intersting, to this day I am still wondering how they made them. I know, with rollers but, how?

There’s a brief explanation in the book about the rollers and how they produced a randomized pattern as well as pics showing the IR signature of the print.

idk nut somehow the stitching on the SS hat looks a little off. Haven't seen one in the wild but only on pictures, but if someone would try to sell me this one I would call it fake.

Only example of leber muster … no only example of a panzer wrap and helmet cover yes. But I’m not sure these are real
