Military style long/short sleeved shirts

[longhuntr74]

Thanks for posting this topic! I too have been searching for these types of shirts! They are difficult to find. I have searched the surplus military stores,
and the color situation is the biggest problem! Might have to settle for the white ones if I can find the correct size!

I've not looked, but I'd say Joly is right. Finding 60-70s vintage military khaki shirts I'd bet is getting a bit hard...most have been worn out...many were worn by Boy Scouts over the past years, but I haven't seen them in quite a while even.

Regarding the white shirts, you'll be happy to know that the new US Army Service Uniform (usually known as Class A/B or Army Greens) has taken that vintage tan military shirt with the epaulets and turned it white and that will be our new Class A/B shirt...so you should see white variants of this readily available thru commercial vendors in the near future.

I'm kind of sad about it...the original proposal was a medium-dark grey herringbone twill weave shirt of the same style that I though looked really sharp with the dark blue coat and light blue pants...but alas, they didn't consult me. HMMMM...wonder if Marlow-White has any of those grey shirts still available? They had started having them made before the Army Uniform people changed their minds and switched to white shirts.
