Art M Posted March 18, 2021 Share #1856 Posted March 18, 2021 Hello everyone, Been reading this topic for some time now without ever really partaking. A couple of days ago I took my first baby steps and purchased off eBay these lightweight late war silver pattern, or so I think. (I couldn’t wait to have it in my hands and take the photos myself to show you so I used eBay seller’s pictures, as it is mine now anyways, I hope it’s no issue otherwise I’ll take them down) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kammo-man Posted March 18, 2021 Share #1859 Posted March 18, 2021 Art Just call them late war light weights and you can’t go wrong. Once you get your first tigers the fun begins ! My first pair of tigers were the exact same as your new ones and I have had hundreds over the years good luck. o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kammo-man Posted March 23, 2021 Share #1866 Posted March 23, 2021 Way later the synthetic labels are a give away even though wartime Thai pattern usually had white overlock stitching inside some seams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soar Posted April 16, 2021 Share #1869 Posted April 16, 2021 First saw this suit about 10 years ago and was hoped that some day our paths would cross...... thanks to Bob at Vintage Productions they finally have. Its a really well made copy of a K2B - looks like one was disassembled for the zips. The fabric is quite unique, I have never seen this before. Its the VNMC early war pattern scaled down to about 70% of original size. Its high quality print on polished poplin exactly line the early VMNC uniforms. Interested to know if any one else has come across anything similar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soar Posted April 16, 2021 Share #1873 Posted April 16, 2021 Colours are the same as the first ARVN pattern that is seen mainly in patrol caps, but this is probably just coincidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kammo-man Posted April 16, 2021 Share #1874 Posted April 16, 2021 Tim I looked at this suit at Bobs also it’s a one of a kind Japanese tailor made suit. Okinawa was a busy place mid 1960s turning out some beautiful pieces of art. Great score and good to see it went to a good home. owen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
