sheffield steel Posted October 17, 2023 #110 Posted October 17, 2023 Hi, so looking for opinions on this Jacket. Details are contained within the photos but i can add that the material is smooth medium/heavy weight cotton NOT HBT, zips are YKK brand and snaps are unmarked bearing comparison to those used on the 1950s Belgian brushstroke/moon & ball camo jackets. All appears original. I think it may be Vietnamese based on the YKK brand zips and the differing variant camo pattern from the usual French TAP jackets. The fit is big and baggy ,again like the Belgian jackets with the batwing sleeves. Elasticated cuffs ( now slack) the pale collar tab seems nylon completely washed out, NO marks or stamps inside. it has a one piece back. Hope you can help with ID and possibly a time frame or likely use (theatre of war).Thanks Elvis
