LE LOUP DES MERS Posted September 2, 2021 Share #1 Posted September 2, 2021 So I have a chance to buy what the seller claims to be 100% original Vietnam tiger stripes. He's asking $300 but I'm hesitant, he claims he had a friend who went to Vietnam and sent these to him in 1967. If someone could tell me if these are real or reproduction that would be greatly appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LE LOUP DES MERS Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share #9 Posted September 14, 2021 Hey so I found another set of Vietnam tiger stripes on the website ima usa here is the link: https://www.ima-usa.com/products/original-u-s-vietnam-war-macv-sog-special-forces-tiger-stripe-camouflage-fatigue-uniform. My question is are they real? Ima was originally asking $1,000 but they dropped the price to $700. I don't think they would just lie like that but I also feel like it would have sold already for that price. What are your guys thoughts. I'm tempted to buy it for that price but like I said are they real or ima full of it? Sorry for link only I tried to copy the photo of ima but it would not let me.

Longhorn92 Posted September 14, 2021 Share #14 Posted September 14, 2021 Those look like good lightweights. $700 is fine, maybe even a little too much. That is a fairly common pattern to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LE LOUP DES MERS Posted September 14, 2021 Author Share #15 Posted September 14, 2021 I was off a little it's more like $800 but I feel like even at that price knowing how popular Vietnam collecting is right now those should have sold already but I could be wrong.

vintageproductions Posted September 14, 2021 Share #16 Posted September 14, 2021 $700.00 for a lightweight set is fine. IMA does not get a lot of Vietnam buyers so you should take advantage of that price and buy them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snake36bravo Posted September 14, 2021 Share #17 Posted September 14, 2021 They want too much for these. Sorry but you can find real ones for less. This is not a particularly rare pattern. You already know but the first ones you posted aren't period Vietnam war. Anything in this style, the top with two lower bottom pockets and no others and the pants in OG-107 style are referred to as being made for the civilian hunting market.

Beau-Brummel Posted September 19, 2021 Share #18 Posted September 19, 2021 As Bob says that Isn't a terrible price for these but be aware, they are very small which why they are cheapish. Ok for a small mannequin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
