Something looks off with the measurements of this jacket . Granted that he’s not measuring it correctly but the tape shows 23 across the chest but he starts measuring at the 2 inch mark. The arms look to be about 24 inches long. The shoulders look like 17.75 inches . Just doesn’t look right for a size 46.

Well spotted, maybe a “ label change” happened at some stage… The stitching looks a bit funky.

Interesting comment B-Man2, also well spotted Pilot, in fact this double stitch looks a bit strange! This is from the recent MIL-SPEC, I doubt that there is a big difference regarding measurements in comparison to C, but can be wrong Anyway not a bad G1 - not a big enthusiast of C but looks like this would be not very bad G1.
