Original Soviet WWII M1943 Uniform Gymnastyorka Blouse with Infantry Shoulder Boards - Size 50
-
Original Item. Only One Available. This is a tremendous Soviet M1943 uniform blouse with infantry shoulder boards. These do not come up often! The only marking we could find is the size under the collar, 50.
The blouse is in very good shape with both its red shoulder boards still intact and attached via buttons to the shoulders. The buttons are mostly retained besides one cuff button missing from each cuff. Some of the other buttons have oxidation, and there is heavy staining across the blouse overall.
Gymnastyorka was a Russian military smock comprising a pullover-style garment with a standing collar having double button closure. Additionally, one or two upper chest pockets, with or without flaps, may have been worn. It had provision for shoulder boards and sometimes reinforced elbows and cuffs. The Tsarist version had the standing collar while the M35 version had a stand-and-fall collar which was replaced with the standing collar in the M43 version. The Soviet Military M35 version usually had hidden buttons. A double breasted version (kitel) for officers of all ranks existed during the Tsarist period.
A lovely uniform ready for further research and display.
