The Model 1915 Bluse
replaced the M1910 Waffenrock beginning in September 1915; the
Waffenrock continued to be used throughout the war (Bavarian units
switched to the Bluse in 1916). The eight front buttons were decreased
to six and covered by a flap, there was no piping, and the cuffs were
barreled only. Field blouses for generals were equipped with breast
pockets. The uniform was generally more comfortable and user friendly
than the M1910. All service arms, including cavalry, used the
M1915.
