Americana Pipedream, in collaboration with Woobie Gear, brings you the Bundesgrenzschutz Sumpftarn Woobie Hoodie. The camouflage print used here has been painstakingly recreated using an original piece of BGS Sumpftarn. The print is based on the earliest known variant of BGS Sumpftarn.

This camouflage pattern was first issued by the BGS in the late 1950s, being based on a camouflage pattern of the same name used by the Wehrmacht during WWII. Due to its similarity to WWII-era uniforms popular opinion shifted against its use. The BGS was forced to adopt civil service uniforms in 1976, putting an end to Sumpftarn's official use by German forces.

BGS Sumpftarn goes hard, so we figured we'd bring you a comfy and cozy hoodie to help you rock this obscure camouflage pattern. For this run, we've embroidered "AP" on the left chest.

The Short & Sweet:

  • Bundesgrenzschutz Sumpftarn colorway
  • "AP" embroidered on left chest
  • Drawstring hood

Care Instructions:

Sizing Guide

Given the massive variety of clothing we carry, a standard sizing guide is incredibly helpful for customers seeking the best fit.

Please understand that surplus varies widely in fit and cut and this sizing chart is general advice rather than tailor-level fitting.

Nearly every military has different sizing charts and schemes, which is why we've taken the time to put together this brief tutorial.

Jacket & Shirt Sizing

In absence of an established military size chart, we measure each jacket or shirt from armpit to armpit to get a rough idea of how it fits. If a garment is between sizes, we mark it one size down. For example, if a shirt measures 19.75" from pit to pit, it is marked as a small rather than medium.

This is our measurement guide that we use to measure garments without an existing military size chart:

14"-15" PtP = XXS

16-17" PtP = Extra Small

18"-19" PtP = Small

20-21" PtP = Medium

22-23" PtP = Large

24-25" PtP = Extra Large

26-27" PtP = XXL

28-29" PtP = 3XL

Pant Sizing

We typically convert pants to US waist and inseam sizes. If a pair of pants is between sizes, we mark it one size down. For example, if a pair of pants measures as a 33 waist, it is marked as a 32 waist.

To take these measurements we lay a pair of pants flat on the ground. We then measure across the waist and double the measurement. For example, if a pair of pants measures 16" across the waist it will fit a US 32 waist.

To determine inseam we measure from the crotch seam to the bottom of the cuff. For example, it a pair of pants measures 30" from the crotch seam to the bottom of the cuff we will list it as a 30 inseam or 30L.
