Hi tigers! I've found this shirt in Saigon famous military market place in 1999. The cut appear to be VNMC but the pattern looks Thaï??? Anyone could help me to identify?

In addition to my precedent pictures:

Another small detail I've found to this, the first button on the top of the torso was black tainted as seen in the fist additional picture.

Hi Puff,

I'm posting this small pair of pants that seems to be the same pattern as yours but not quite as faded. I really don't know this cut but the buttons are like wartime ones . This pair of pants have a large stamp inside with what appears like a large number 8. I have had these longer than your shirt but don't know exactly when. This may be a post war cut to the pants but they are not ripstop. I can't get the color to come out as bright as Puffs but it is the same. Any comments welcome to further clarify the use and time period of this pattern.

Bob, Super helmet bags . A very rare bunch.

Regards, Mitch

I would have no problem having the pants and shirt in my collection.

The end of war years ..........is something that needs to be explored deeply ...........and the OD issue helps this greatly .

Got this today from a SEAL Team One guy who had it made in Vung Tau in 1969. Pictures don't do the colors justice.

I've probably handled about twenty or so tiger stripe party jackets like this, but this is the first time I have seen one made out of lightweight tiger. What a rocker...

Spike what a great and rare jacket. I have never seen one like it.

O, glad you like the pants.

Puff, Thanks for your comment. I took a picture outside to see if it would show up better. I just don't have the best camera.

Regards, Mitch

If that's a real set of Golds then someone got a bargain, I would think.

 

 

if it's real:

 

cheap price for ADS/Gold plus large size

 

BUT this one is REPRO for me!!

"BUT this one is REPRO for me!!"

 

Explain why.

 

 

when i see this on the auction, i think, ok it looks good to me.

but the second photo looks similar to Moore Gold Tiger in 2007 (the color and the contrast is not like Gold should be)

after this, i compare Moore Gold Tiger with this doubtful one and find out it's not Moore.

i remember, in 2000 there was a Thai Gold clone with black stripes error.

doubtful one:

between correct red and blue markings: black stripes error, deleted stripes area, to compact (yellow arrow)

Here is a set I have had for a few years, I know nothing about them at all. Thought I would show them on here and get some opinions. Thought I had posted this in the Tiger Stripes thread, If anyone knows how to move please let me know.
