German S.S. WWII enlisted men's military cloth uniform insignias were either woven or machine embroidered. Enlisted men's badges were never hand embroidered during the Third Reich or WW2. Hand embroidered versions are sometimes offered elsewhere because they require less 'up front' investment being hand made in small quantities.
