Gaiters of the Afrika Korps
Gaiters of the Afrika Korps. Very good condition.
These are the distinctive gaiters worn by soldiers of the German Afrika Korps during World War II. Made from tan-colored fabric, they were part of the standard uniform for the troops stationed in North Africa, designed to protect the legs and boots from the harsh desert environment. The gaiters were often worn over the trousers and secured with straps, providing additional durability and comfort for soldiers in the challenging terrain of the Sahara. The tan color was well-suited to blend with the desert environment, and the gaiters became a recognizable part of the iconic Afrika Korps uniform.
