Wehrmacht Woolen Winter Mittens

Wehrmacht (Heer/SS) EM's issue woolen Winter Mittens (Handschuhe). The winter mittens were a standard issue item and were distributed to all EM/NCO's for the winter season, (15 September to 15 April), with other winter garments and were to be returned to the units clothing depot in April for storage, repair and cleaning to be reissued the following September. The mittens are made of field-grey wool cloth material, fully lined with grey wool. There is a button and leather strap to keep the mittens together, made of grey coloured Italian leather. These are mittens with 'trigger' finger. The mittens are faintly maker marked. Nice original pair in mint and unissued condition!
