Original US Military issue
100% ripstop cotton poplin
Dated 1969
An original Tropical Combat coat with retro-fitted patches. All the patches were applied post-war and include wartime cut edge, full-colour 1st Cavalry Division and 173rd Airborne Brigade SSIs, a set of post-war branch and name tapes, as well as post-war awards and collar insignia. A cool fashion piece, but not quite historically accurate. We've priced the jacket according to the overall condition + the unique values of the applied insignia.
Professionally taken-in by a tailor for a fitted appearance.
Excellent condition with minor signs of wear - All buttons, fittings, and fixtures are present and working. The contract label is present and legible. Slight discolouration in some areas as seen.
