It’s from Pakistan it says. So it could be, but it looks like faux shearling on it. The pictures aren’t very good so it’s hard to tell.

It is not Five Stars model. Here is a link to a review I did on my Five Star B2 purchase comparing it to an original Perry Sportswear in my collection. I think Five Star is much better than the one on ebay, much more accurate. Look at the one listed on ebay, the seams and other details just aren’t right. If you want authenticity, save your money and add a little more and get one that is at least constructed accurately. best, Kevin

Not FiveStar...

I bought a MacArthur cap years ago... And thinking about it have no idea where it us?

The British stuff looks good. The US WWII caps look woeful.

Shawn's B-2s are better than this...
