Hi,

I need these things.
1st - WWII LARGE khaki pants, size 38Waist, or larger, 40, 42, etc..
2nd - WWII LARGE khaki shirt - Size 42, 44, or bigger, or 17X35, 16.5X35, 17X36, etc..... or larger
3rd - A pair of WWII Service boots, size 10, 10.5, 11

Can someone please let me know if anyone has any of these items?

THank you!!

You should be able to ge all those items in those sizes as repro clothing, or are you looking for original?

Well, I want to find originals.
If you ever note, you pay ALOT more for REPRO stuff than you do original.
For Example. I just bought a MINT pair of WWII Herringbone twill pants, size 40 for $115. These were all original untouched WWII uniform. IF you go to the repro sites the pants are more!
I want to find original also, as the fabric, feel and look of repros are not nearly close to the original items. At least not that I have ever found.
I will try Stan to see if he has anything.
If anyone else knows or if anyone has any larger WWII Uniform items, please let me know. I will TRADE or BUY.

thank you!

Also,
I am in need of a pair of WWII Service Shoes.
The shoes are low top brown dress shoes.
I know someone had a place that had some that were real glossy, but I would like originals or as close to as I can get.
I actually found a pair that had a QM Stamp dated 1961. They were spitting images of the WWII shoes. I guess they all used the same shoe up through the early 60's. MY dad was in the military in the late 60's and he said his shoes were black.

Thank you to anyone who can help me with any of this stuff.

I really appreciate it,
Chad

I have a few smaller pairs that I am selling to folks on this site.
I just need the larger sizes.

Anyone have anything at all?
