What is "leibermuster"

' Leibermuster' is a six-color military camouflage pattern developed by the German military in February 1945. It was the last of a family of German World War II camouflage patterns. Known in German as "Buntfarbenaufdruck 45" ('Multi-colour print pattern 45') for its year of introduction, Leibermuster (named after the brothers Leiber, the pattern's creators) was issued on a very limited basis to combat units before the war ended. It was the first pattern issued to both regular army ( Wehrmacht), and Waffen-SS units. The pattern consists of black, brown, olive, pale green, white, and red.

Reproduction Leibermuster uniforms, created for collectors and reenactors, have become available on the market through European vendors. Reproductions are made in China and Turkey.
