    Description

    You are bidding on a VERY NICE set of WW2 German Luftwaffe Winter Fliegerhandschuhe Leder (Winter Leather Flying Gloves), as used by various fighter pilots and bomber crew members!  This is the rarer short version, used mainly by officers.
    Made of leather, these gloves were used throughout the Luftwaffe by many pilots and bomber crews.
    They provided both protection and warmth, but were used mainly during the winter months, as they were heated electrically, via the aircraft's main power supply.
    Made of soft leather and fur, these gloves are in EXCELLENT used condition!!
    Combat-worn, 95% of the original coloring remains, and there are NO tears or damage!  Some slight marks and wear from use, but nothing that detracts.  No corrosion on any of the electrical contacts/snaps.  The right hand is worn more than the left, as that hand held the KG13 control grip.
    A 100% genuine Luftwaffe issue item, they appear to be around a size 9.  W
    ould make a VERY NICE addition to any collection or display!!!
    Please email me if you need additional photos or information.

    ------------------- TERMS OF SALE -----------------
    Most of my items are vintage, and as such are AS-IS, so you must therefore expect a degree of wear due to age and/or usage.

All sales are final, so please make sure your questions are answered to your satisfaction before you purchase.
    ------------------- ABOUT ME -----------------
    Although my passion is the Me109, I do offer many other German Aircraft (Fw190, Me262, etc.), as well as USAF and Japanese items. Occasionally I do offer many non-vintage items such as prints and art relating to the time period. As a private collector myself, I am constantly on the lookout for historical memorabilia, authentic photographs, artwork or anything unique relating to military aircraft.
