    Facial Hair or Goatee in wwII?

    avoidance of a beard when portraying a soldier is prudent. stubble for combat troops but not a beard.

    WANTED>> Buzz Rickson navy jacket 44

    looking for a Buzz rickson repro of what they term 'navy deck zip' essentially a jungle cloth blue patch pocket version of the Army tanker jacket. I need a 44 or maybe a 42 as they run big. a mccoys version of the same would be cool but I think a 46 would be necessary as they seem to cut...

    Big, beautiful McCoys New Zealand A-2

    I need to move a superbly patina'd McCoys russet horsehide take on the Roughwear 16159 contract a-2. You will be aware that Jackets from real McCoys are very expensive and that once shipping and customs have taken their cut, they are prohibitively so.. This jacket is made from heavy grade...

    M65 Field Jacket in Black - are there any good ones?

    How good do you need it to be? I had a black alpha and it was just fine. Looked like an m65 and had all the features and as I dont go rolling about, crawling through mud and under barbed wire etc in civilian clothing it was entirely fit for purpose. What I will say is that heavy laundering...

    What Field jacket is this??

    this is the odd thing. ww2 reenactors are only now realising the holy grail of M41 Jacket repros. RL crank them out without a backward glance, 'enhancing' the design on the way which reduces or removes their appeal for that purpose. I like them and recieve favourable comments on the black para...

    What Field jacket is this??

    Give me a few days. I bought the pants in 2001 and the jacket in 2003 and they were at an outlet store reduced.

    What Field jacket is this??

    I am a big fan of the Ralph Lauren military vintage inspired jackets. I like that they are high street and they are a bit of fun. some are downright awful mind you and I only ever buy the ones I do like from ebay or outlet stores which reduces their high tag. Despite being in some cases...

    A-5 flight trousers

    I have originals of both and the A-5's are significantly lighter in weight by design. the shin pockets are zippered rather than the open patch pockets of the A-3 but in almost every other sense they are just a lightweight version. i can post a link for repros if you are interested?

    Eastman Monarch A-2 I dont get it!

    I took delivery of a second hand monarch from Eastman the other day. i love it. It fits trim and is exceptionally supple. A stiffer Eastman jacket would be a roughwear 27752 contract which is a heavy hide. maybe an exchange could be worked out (I dont care for the feel of the roughwears myself)...
