$242.00

This is an original 1940s P-41 USMC utility jacket from WWII, made of herringbone twill, or HBT, in a size 40. With great details all around, the jacket has superb enameled metal buttons which say \'U.S. Marine Corps\' in raised lettering. The chest pocket features the still very dark USMC stencil, as well as a pen pocket. This jacket was worn well, and is well worn. Despite some conditional issues, the jacket is in very wearable condition, and doesn\'t have any deal-breaking issues. Labeled as a size 40, the measurements of this jacket are below, please refer to them before purchasing. The jacket should fit relatively true to size, somewhere between a size medium and a size large.
Measurements:

Chest (pit-to-pit): 23.75 in
Shoulders: 21.5 in
Hem: 24.5 in
Length: 30.5 in
Sleeve Length: 24 in

Decent vintage condition. Staining throughout, particularly on the backs of the arms, elbows, and forearms, as well as across the back. Faded throughout. Buttonholes are somewhat frayed, with some of the stitching loose. Several small pinholes and pulls. There is some evidence that the sleeves may have been repaired/re-stitched at some point, as the seams are somewhat atypical, and there seem to be lines where the stitching once was. Some dropped stitches and loose threads. See photos for more details. Sold as-is. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to request more photos. Thanks!
