Hi Frank. The uniform will take wear and tear. You might want to reenforce the buttons though. It's an easy fix with some thread and a needle. Takes about 30 minutes. There are a few things you can do to "fool" the reenactors as well.
There is not much difference in the HK & the Sturm uniforms. Sturm's stuff is actually made in China now! The cut of the HK uniforms is actually closer to the Hugo Boss German cut. Sturm's stuff is cut for "large" reenactors. So reenforce the buttons, paint the buttons with some dark greem Tamaya acrylic and get the uni dirty and you'll be good to go.
As far as reenacting...you're too young to carry a gun...so why not get that damned airsoft K98 and do some damage in the next A/S battle? ;D

I think there is a German sang, "if you can"t sew, your not a soldier" This is extremely true, both then and now. Get some nice thick thread and reinforce those buttons.

There's also another german saying. "Lagers affect typing!"
