This is a very attractive - matching and with certainty very scarcely seen! - pair of WH (Luftwaffe) shoulderstraps as was executed in the typical bluish-toned, so-called: 'HBT'-type cloth and is piped in the bright-yellow- (ie. 'goldgelbener'-) coloured branchcolour as was specifically intended for usage by a: 'Soldat der Flieger- o. Fallschirmjäger-Truppen' (or: simple pilot- or paratrooper-soldier) and that comes in an overall very nice- (I deem hardly or even never used- nor worn ie. still 'virtually mint- ie. unissued'-), condition. The straps - which measure 10,3 cms. in length each as more often - have the desirable 'silk-like'-type piping attached and simply show hardly any wear nor age). The straps came naturally mounted onto their functional (albeit somewhat differently shaped) tongues (as can be seen on the pictures). These HBT-styled shoulderstrap-pairs can easily be considered 'fairly scarce' and saw (for example) also usage by the (later-war-period-) so-called: LW 'Felddivisionen' (they were for example used on the 3/4-sized camouflaged FD-smocks). It has been some time that I had an equally nicely preserved - and scarcely found! - Luftwaffe-pair on offer!
