By 1944, many of the uniforms of the Fallschirmjäger were no longer standardized. Many soldiers would wear the Heer jackboots, or whatever boots was available. Some Fallschirmjäger would wear the tropical pants in warmer weather, others wore DAK boots, and still others carried standard infantry ammo pouches. The Fallschirmtruppen had expanded so rapidly that supplying them with uniforms and enforcing uniform standards had become nearly impossible.

However, as a reenacting unit, it is important to present the ideal standard to the public. Some variations will be allowed, with more flexibility given to the late war (or basic) impression. This will be the basic uniform, as the majority of battles take place around the Normandy invasion (1944) or later (Ardennes Offensive, advance to the Rhine, etc).
