Germany, Wehrmacht. A Pair of Winter Mittens

(Wehrmacht Handschuhe). An extremely well-preserved pair of Wehrmacht winter mittens, each constructed of heavy field-grey wool. Constructed gauntlet-style, the mittens each feature independent channels for the thumb and index finger. The interior of each mitten is lined with an additional thick layer of grey wool for added comfort. Integrated cottons straps emanate from the wrists and wrap around an original wooden peg, securing the pair together. Remnants of a now-illegible white ink maker’s mark are found near the interior wrists of both. They each measure 150 mm (w) x 330 mm (l). The mittens are in an unissued and near mint condition.
