(Kriegsmarine Sporthemd). A well-preserved Kriegsmarine sports shirt, constructed of white cotton. The shirt is sleeveless and features dual shoulder straps. Stitched onto the chest is an insignia consisting of a white cotton backer bearing a machine-embroidered blue Wehrmacht eagle clutching a wreathed mobile swastika, measuring 22.5 cm (w) x 10.5 cm (h) overall. The interior of the collar features a label with a machine-embroidered red size mark of “42”. The shirt measures 37 cm (w) x 63 mm (l) when folded on a flat surface. Minor soiling consistent with period usage is evident, but the shirt remains in a near extremely fine condition.
