Wehrmacht infantry collar tabs 1933 pattern
Wehrmacht infantry collar tabs 1933 pattern
Original 1933 pattern Wehrmacht infantry collar tabs. Jacquard-woven on a gray background with two white stripes indicating the infantry Waffenfarbe. Cut from the roll, never used or sewn. Such tabs remained popular until the very end of the war—soldiers valued them for their striking look, as they stood out on the uniform and became a symbol of front-line style and unit pride. It was common to find such tabs in military supply stores (Wehrmacht depots), where soldiers picked them to customize their uniforms and add a personal touch to their appearance.
Collar tabs evolution by regulations:
- 1933: Field-gray tabs (feldgrau) with dark gray (Graugrün) central field, branch color side stripes, and gray-green wool or moleskin backing.
- 1935 (HV 33, Nr. 505): Field-gray tabs with a bluish-dark green (bläulichdunkelgrün) central stripe.
- 1938 (HV 388 B, Nr. 452): Central field and side stripes in bluish-dark green (bläulichdunkelgrün).
- 1940 (HV 408 B, Nr. 134): Standardized tabs for all branches with mouse-gray (mausgrauem) central field and side stripes. Used on pre-war Feldbluse tunics and Drillichblusen work jackets. After 1940, tabs were sewn without piped stripes, including on Feldbluse 44 models.
