vintageproductions Posted January 18, 2009 Share #1327 Posted January 18, 2009 While sorting through a box of photographs tonight, I found this photo of one of coolest pieces of Tiger Stirpe I ever owned. This was cut identical to a WWII Jump Jacket. Every bellow, pocket, zip, etc. Probably 20+ years ago, Spike found this on a guy walking around Great Western Gun Show. He then brought it to me and I believe we did some trading on it. I kept it for many years, until I sold it at a weak moment in time (okay. actually I was broke). Have never seen it surface again, would love to know what happened to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Copran Posted January 18, 2009 Share #1328 Posted January 18, 2009 Bob, Any information about the material ? ( poplin like or heavyweight ), it looks like Filipinos TS for me. Really cool jacket.

vintageproductions Posted January 18, 2009 Share #1330 Posted January 18, 2009 Bob, Any information about the material ? ( poplin like or heavyweight ), it looks like Filipinos TS for me. Really cool jacket. It was definately not Filippino tiger stripe material. It was extremely well made, probably done by a Japanese tailor, classic heavyweight material.

kammo-man Posted January 19, 2009 Share #1331 Posted January 19, 2009 Spike . Thanks for the spell check . Bob What a fantastic jacket . This looks like that heavy weight fabric to me .

Constabulary Posted January 24, 2009 Share #1348 Posted January 24, 2009 I just got in a nice pair of Tiger Stripe Shorts. The waist adjustment tabs go through a sewn on tunnel (or so) on the backside. Waist is about 31.5" Unfortunately two of the tiny buttons are missing, they have a 3/8" or 9mm diameter Does some one have some in spare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
