 The ASV Vorwärts, the abbreviation for the A rmee s sportvereinigung V orwärts, functioned in the GDR as the sports association of the National People's Army (NVA).
 A famous feature was the ASV's uniform tracksuit, made of Dederon or cotton. This suit was brown with yellow-red stripes on the sides and the oval ASV emblem on the chest. Everyone in the NVA, whether soldier or general, wore this suit as sportswear. Many former conscripts and career soldiers even used it as casual wear after their active service.
 A GDR retro-style sports jacket can be worn by anyone interested in the style of the GDR era or who appreciates fashion from that era. There are no specific requirements. However, it's important to note that certain associations with the GDR era and its political system may be uncomfortable for some people. Therefore, it's important to consider your environment and the people you're with before deciding to wear such a jacket.
