Hi,
I would like to know whether these leather buttons were genuine or not and moreover on which types of clothes they were worn?
Thx,

Hello

Leather buttons were applied on the HJ Mantel and on the first version of the HJ Dienstrock. They are also used on civilian clothes throughout the century so difficult to date them.

Hello Hugues,
Okay, thank you for your answer. But it's strange because indirectly this type of button represents the svastika ; so it's surprising for me to find them on civilian clothes...
