Thanks! Looking for the modern style.

Check jhiggins.net.

Nevermind. Those are v-neck.

This is it, our own Marines are using them. And despite having a USMC label in the back of the neck, they actually are manufactured in the U.K. and imported for the Marines:

I got one of the green ones just a few weeks ago because I wanted the current version with shoulder tabs/epaulettes, and I really like it. BTW, you can see one being worn with a Leatherneck tartan kilt in post #2 of this thread:

I found mine at Fleet Farm. Do you have any of those in your neck of the woods?

You can also find this style in a few colors from L.L. Bean. I have a couple (that are showing their age

) in Green Heather, and Tan, that are about 25 years old.

Seriously cheap 5-7gbp each at first glance.

No question. But when you factor in shipping cost, he might as well get one of the ones they've already shipped from the U.K. to the US Marine Corps.

Also worth pointing out that those are used/surplus jumpers, while those sent to our Marines are new/never worn.
