undercollars!
Hello gentlemen,
I´ve recently purchased a set of 3 undercollars. They´re quite nice and it seems they´ve been unused. The question is, how were they stitched onto the collar? Has anybody a uniform with an undercollar still attached to it? I wish to display them in a navy kitel and a gymnastiorka I own, but before doing anything stupid (or painful stitching work that will become useless) I´d like to see how is it done properly. Thanks!

Re: undercollars!
well, let´s make it more accurate. I want to know if the stitch must be near the edge of the uniform collar or near the base of it.

Re: undercollars!
Hi Esteban, I am a WW2 Red Army re-enactor and I am used to sewing in a collar liner at every event.
Sewing in the collar liner is very easy. Just tack it in place with a simple running stitch. It does not need any fancy stitching. Just stitch it along the top edge. The collar liner needs to show about 2mm above the edge of the collar. Cheers, Ade.

Re: undercollars!
I will be sewing in a clean one for an event this coming weekend, so I will take a few pics for you and post them here.
Cheers, Ade.
