Being new to the vintage-style replicas, can anyone tell me what the fit of a jacket like this, or similar, is? A quick search shows mostly new jackets but I was wondering if there were any original shots of the M444 around so I can gauge the look better.
This definitely intrigues me and laid flat as in the above pics it looks boxy, which is my preferred cut, and by that I mean loose on the tummy/waist area. Is it as simple as requesting a custom jacket when this becomes available?
Mind you, I also have a liking for B-3s, B-6s and D-1s, or a B-6 if Shawn can source one to replicate. On the few days I've been a member of this site, I've seen everything from very loose fits to fashion slim fits (and not being slim would never buy anyway!), so it can feel like a lot to absorb at times when seeking out war-era-style clothing.
Apologies for the length of this message. Any help appreciated.
