Oooh, Thats weird.

 

Unusual cuff design, never seen that.

 

Don't really like the collar configuration, ie. how its sewn to the body, but hey I could be wrong.

 

Could be a far east repro, but the print and fabric is spot on.

Yes, I think thats right. Am pretty sure its a MASH shirt. Their copy of the gold pattern had a distinctive horizontal pattern repeat that you can see on the back of the shirt

 

 

Hello,

 

the fabric looks good to me and the cut could be made by a tailor (cuff design, costum made)

 

BUT the black stripes is unsual for me.

 

i think is a good repro.

I've not read all pages of the two tiger stripe threads yet.

I haven't seen Matt's pattern before.

On all the patterns I know the stripes above and under the yellow arrow are combined

Here's beret in quite unusual pattern:

Note the fabric connection:

It seems there was a plastic sweat liner, now gone:

I completed to read and look at the two tiger threads some time ago.

Still, I'm far away from being an expert.

 

Matt, what's the story behind the last shirt you showed here?

It looks like a derivative of the first marine pattern.

 

I haven't shown any pics of my small tiger collection yet.

I'm sorry for the bad picture quality.

 

This is a shirt I got from Copran.

I like that the left and right side of the front are made of different areas of the pattern.

I'm not sure what I will do with this shirt.

It's a little bit to big. I thought about getting it retailored. Or I just keep it as it is.

Nice, I have one that is very similar, zip-up and same pockets.

 

Unfortunately too small for me....LOL :lol:

Guy ,

I added the beer can as I have lost it for many years and just found it in a packet , so before it goes again , its on the hat now.

Multi piece make up from scrapes ,same as the liner.

Very nice shirt!

There is a pants from my collection with exactly the same buttons like on the shirt.

I saw this small-thin black buttons a couple times before but always on light-weight custom made pices made out of this tiger pattern.

Thx. for the posting!
