Evolution Of German Uniforms

Did you know what the first German Army uniform looked like? People in uniform exude a unique air of authority. Stay tuned and keep watching to see how the German army uniforms evolved through the years.
1933
In early 1933 the armed forces of the Weimar Republic were near the end of a two-year project to redesign the Army Feldbluse (field blouse).
That year, the new tunic was issued to the Reichsheer and then the rapidly growing Wehrmacht Heer, although minor design changes continued to be made after that.
1934
The original soft cover for the Heer, introduced in 1934, was a folding garrison or envelope cap in feldgrau wool, similar to that worn by American, Soviet, and RAF personnel but with a "scoop" in the front. The Panzer and tropical uniforms issued variants in black wool and olive cotton.
At the same time, the M34 side-cap was introduced for enlisted wear, and a foldable field cap for officers was authorized. This cap had a crown of a significantly smaller diameter without the wire stiffener, a soft band, and a visor of flexible leather or feldgrau wool. Insignia were jacquard-woven.
The dress, service, and walking-out cap for all ranks was the peaked cap as finalized in 1934. The semi-rigid band was covered in bottle-green fabric, and the stiff visor came in a variety of materials and was made of either black vulcanized rubber, fiber, plastic, or patent leather. The oval wool crown was stiffened with wire into a curved "saddleback" shape with a high front. Insignia consisted of the national cockade surrounded by an oak leaf wreath on the front of the band, with the Wehrmachtsadler above; these were stamped aluminum or sometimes embroidered in bullion for officers.

So you just completely skipped over the beautiful uniforms of the Kaiserriech and WW1 era?

[@pootis388]

Fr bro he skipped the best part

[@Sketchy.editz123]

I still like the 1933 one

[@feliksssander1554]

The drip dripped away over time. The older uniforms looked better. P.S this was a high quality video, especially for such a small channel.

[@evolutionzone1]

Glad you liked it! Will keep pushing ever higher-quality videos!

[@dalirfarzan1694]

What I did not like about this video is that there were random shots of other parts of the uniform when the audio description was talking about another part. For example, when the audio description was going on about the hat, there was a picture of a tunic showing. In the future, to improve the videos, have pictures that match what the audio is currently talking about. This allows people to actually see the differences in the uniform as the audio describes it.

[@Riceball01]

I agree.I would have liked to have seen the video synched up with the audio as well. I would have gotten a lot more out of this video if that was the case.

[@evolutionzone1]

I hope to have improved this in the last video 'Captain America'! From now on this will be better!

[@Franky46Boy]

Fully agree!

[@richardbaxter2057]

@@evolutionzone1I’d like to see you remake this one, please. You have plenty of background source material, it just needs matching to the relevant item of clothing that is being spoken about!

One of the Best looking uniforms

[@bmwmanyjak8652]

0:47 That's a Czechoslovak officer, not a German one.

[@atticuswadsworth5961]

You completely skipped the Cold War, dawg

[@dingus_doofus]

"Did you know what the first German Army uniform looked like?" No, and I still don't because you didn't talk about it.

[@TP42411]

The SS officer at 07.57 has the SD cufflinks, yet also has SS runes on the right collarpatch. Is it from a movie? SD officers didn't to my knowledge have SS runes on their collarpatches ,regardless their ranks. They all had blank collarpatches, until they had the ranks of 'standartenführer' .From that on and up they had similar collarpatches as the SS

[@al0haxd]

0:46 This is not german but is czechoslovakia officer uniform

[@davis9112]

Why there is a gap between 1945 and 1990?

[@markmckenzie1353]

The sound did not go with the film.

[@shyboy-kr1fb]

The uniform looks amazing

[@ckc9913studios]

5:31 I think that's an AK, not an STG.

[@EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEwastaken]

those are East German soldiers after world war 2

[@ZacharyBurgard]

Completely missed German pre ww1 and ww1 uniforms

[@elijahjustice1470]

I’m just here for the uniforms…nothing else.

[@pvught390]

Nothing can match German design technology and know-how.

[@tylerdelgregg9398]

The pictures don't match the dialogue.

[@FareezKhan]

Hugo boss made the best uniform hands down

[@mickgovernor]

talk about a fall from grace

[@ArnoldTohtFan]

The spiteful ✡️ wouldn't allow them to keep the beautiful uniforms. Modern day Germany grovels at the feet of the chosenites and does whatever they say.

[@Shajzemon_SVK]

0:47 Ayo that´s Czechoslovakian guy.

[@theanotsband]

Why have pics of the US uniform items when this is about German uniforms?

[@kevinvandenboer6149]

I like 1916 style

[@Roadieguru]

Your dialogue is tot at ally out of sink with the slideshow? Unprofessional?

[@gabork5055]

Are the footages at the beginning and the end taken in Hungary? Don't think Dolfy would have built these statues with our coat of arms in Germany to win over the Austro-Hungarians he thought of as so multicultural and degenerate. He preferred to send his capos to handle that, haha.

[@Depressed_guy72728]

so the kaiserreich and weimar repuplic hadn´t had any german uniforms?🤣

[@Richard_Lush]

Wow the videos don’t go with the commentary. I stopped watching 😂

[@TheRedPHANTOM212]

1933-1945 uniforms look identical to the 1990 ones

[@arthurwellesley1815]

No

[@redboatwengchunserbia6448]

Still fasist just lite different

[@Florian.geyer.1483]

They where not facist they where National socialist and the uniform has nothing to do with fascism

[@Pommern712]

Still Fascist, just a little different*

[@firstnamelastname4337]

your assessment is wrong and so is your spelling

[@majestikmse8862]

Bruh

[@jaws666]

Photos,for the most part DO NOT match the narration.this video SHOULD have been titled "eveloution of german military JACKETS and NOT "Uniforms"

[@FarmerDrew]

Poofy pants are not haut

[@marcelosedy4703]
