I love the USAAF officers trouser belt! I 've not seen a repro one of those before but a have a lovely original and these repro's look spot on.
The uniform section looks very promising! Does this mean I'll be able to get a decent Officers Service Coat made from the correct 100% wool officer elastique fabric, and all the correct labels?? And an Ike jacket too?? My excitement is building!!

Stanier,
Thanks for the compliment on the belts. I really like doing odd things like that. Are they huge sellers? No. Will I make a lot of money on them? No. But I think they're cool, so there they are. I'm working on mechanic's coveralls, flight suits, and officer's Ike jackets. Hopefully I have something to put up soon. The Ike jackets look promising.

What an interesting thread. It's ironic that we "war enthusiasts" get along so well, lol
I want to add that I have an Excellent Flighter from Diamond Dave and recently ordered a Khaki color worsted wool, soft/original brim cap from Pete at http://wwiiflightwear.com/. It is probably now about 5 weeks out (on an estimated 6-week wait). Since I have an Army issue version khaki (unlined) and a nice, worsted wool + lined version I am anxious to compare it with them.
My personal taste runs toward the standard shape brim that is flexible like a Flighter rather than stiff. I only recently found this was even "a thing" when I got my Dobbs, which (for me) is the greatest of all those I have tried. I like it better than my flighters.
