So I just brought this

It blouses massively at the back, even more so than my Vintage Spearpoints or my Chester Cordite shirts.
More than this indicates
However since I intend to wear it at times...
Moving this on because its too big. Great example of a classic that kept its shape and style intact throughout the years. I belive, given the plastic teeth, this is late 70s to 80s (note Teeth cannot be seen when zipped up).
Cuffs have been repaired, zip tags scruffed. Still VERY water...
So I'm looking to pass these on. They're in very good condition, with a few marks. Can provide lots of other pics to anyone interested. Important thing to note is that one of the teeth on the back buckle has snapped. The other one is fine.

Gorgeous tan monk straps. These were commonly worn by USAAF officers through to 60s mods.
I would say these fit a little wide and low for my feet, but would hopefully do well for someone else. I'm a UK 8E or US 8.5D for reference.

Unusually for me (since I mostly take and interest in American vintage and 20s- 50s style) I've developed an interest in the shorts worn by the British and Australian military during the Second World War era.
I'm primarily interested for practical reasons- the waist adjusters look smart, but...
Looking for a 40-42 Something along the lines of this

Brought this for my Partner a few winters ago, but it's a US 14 and on the large end of that. Its probably nearer a US 16 so a UK 18. Slightly different from a traditional Pea Coat in that it has epalutes. Appears to have the Service Women's details written in.
MEASUREMENTS TO BE ADDED

So having had no problems with my short sleeve, I managed to pick up a long sleeve on eBay. I knew from the start it had probably been machine washed a few times, but after wearing it a few times, I've realised it's too small. Ideally I'd like to swap with someone before trying to sell it...

So, brought this a few years ago- it appeared to be New Old Stock or barely used, with creases still in it? Only flaw was a pin hole in the collar. This has only been worn out the house once, always felt too big for me. Don't really want to sell this, but...

Lightweight material, I'd say a cotton/ rayon or polyester mix- there is no fabric label? When I got it, there was some bobbling, probably through age and over-laundering. I belive I've cleaned most of this up, but there is also a white mark on the tail...

So, I know there are a few other Chester Cordite threads, but these deal with his suits. I now have a couple of the shirts and honestly, they are the best repro spearpoint shirts I've had. There is quite a range of cloths, although these...
