It is, as stated in the ad. Although very stylish and cool looking it is illogical to (re)place the manufacturer's label and even the sizetag in almost the exact spot of the original lining. Something which might not be very important to the original owner. Same goes for the jacket with the American parachute lining. Just a thought...

Why would you not put the tag back in? For the sake of literally a minute or two of sewing..

The labels are the most important part of a repro!!

How keen are you on your issued clothing and kit? When I was in the navy I couldn't care less of the labels in my issued uniforms and kit.
I don't think that a unitrigger or someone else would care for a meticulous placing and stitching of a label other than for collector's reasons. Again, very cool looking but tricky..

You probably didn't invade Sicily....
I keep everything I am issued. With the tags on it... if I can.... and spares.

Well, it seems to stay pure speculation. No one can prove it's original wartime made and no one can prove it's not.
