Oh yeah wow great find mate

[Jord666]

Thanks very much both! Can't believe how cheap you can pick these up, although I can imagine that they won't be to many peoples taste but I think they're great

[rocket]

way cool Jord…

[mclaincausey]

Another huge score

[Blackheart]

Awesome coat Jord! Great fit and great details, I love it!

[Jord666]

Thanks all hope you get to see one in person one day (if you haven't already) because the fabric is insane, seems like they were built to last 10 lifetimes

Nice scores Jordan, I have a blanket lined WW2 tanker jacket incoming as a winter work coat. Pics soon 

[davito]

Tanker is always nice, awaiting excited your pix

[Jord666]

Thanks mega, can't wait to see the tanker!

[Megatron1505]

Here it is, not sure if I like it or not tbh.

Any back view Mega? Looks to be heaps of spare fabric around the back of the armpits.

[Megatron1505]

Unfortunately not, drawback of having a child photographer. I'm pretty sure that it fits like its meant to, definitely my size, just not sure that it's me  :-\

[Seul]

Going by the size of that dome it's you alright…

Gav yes its meant to fit like that as the guys layered their clothes under it back then in their situation. Great jacket, from which year is it?

[bagley920]

I think it looks good on you Gav. Never been a fan of elastic around the opening though

[Megatron1505]

Thanks guys (fuck you Seul), not sure which year David to be honest, it has no identifying labels or markings at all apart from a shoulder patch of the 13th Airbourne.

[davito]

Gav this one right?

[Megatron1505]

My mistake, it's actually the 513th Parachute Infantry Regiment.

I have a few 101J's.  This is my fave.  I'm guessing it hails from 1981…..

Love it G
