The classic, proven Bundeswehr sweater is made according to the original Bundeswehr quality sweater specifications. Each upper arm of the wool sweater features a national insignia. It is ideal for the cold season. The knitted sweater is pleasantly warm, robust, and provides a comfortable wearing climate. The polyacrylic material warms and insulates in cold weather, absorbs moisture in warmth, and keeps the skin dry. The sweater has reinforced elbow and shoulder areas, a shoulder patch with loops, and a chest pocket with an integrated pen holder. The longer cut protects the kidney area. Knitted cuffs at the arm openings and collar help maintain the shape of the sweater and protect against the cold. The sweater is perfect for outdoor wear, whether worn as an outer layer or underneath. On cold days, the collar can be zipped up to protect the entire neck area. When it gets warmer, it can be easily unzipped, and the collar can be folded down. Thus, the sweater can be worn versatile as a turtleneck or without a turtleneck.
