Okay, who fits into a size 34?

I'm already watching that. I could probably fit into that but my days of shoehorning myself into jackets are gone. It looks a bit odd too.

I like it, but it's hard to say what the story is with that waist knit. The Albert Turner was one of the last B-15C contracts ... Full Gear notes faded knits.

Not to mention it looks too filthy to resurrect, although those with nylon experience correct me if I'm wrong as I usually steer clear of these thinking the stains are permanent.

i suspect the knit in this case to be a replacement....with that faded out blue it may be an alpha vintage :lol:
