Collection: German Oak Leaf Eichenlaubmuster Autumn CAMO

Oak Leaf Eichenlaubmuster Autumn CAMO was a WWII-era camouflage pattern developed for the Waffen-SS and introduced in 1943 as part of Germany’s evolving military camouflage designs. The name Eichenlaubmuster translates to "oak leaf pattern", reflecting the pattern’s use of overlapping leaf-like shapes in shades of brown, tan, and muted green, designed specifically for autumn and late-season environments. This variation of the Oak Leaf pattern was reversible, with a spring/summer green version on one side and the autumn colors on the other, allowing soldiers to adapt to seasonal changes. Used primarily by SS camouflage smocks and zeltbahns (tent ponchos), it provided effective concealment in forested and transitional landscapes. The version of Oak Leaf Eichenlaubmuster Autumn CAMO featured on CAMO HQ is inspired by this historical military design, preserving its distinctive look while adapting it for collectors, reenactors, and commercial applications.
