Info wanted on B-3 jacket

[jack31916]

Hi all,

I've bought this B-3. It's in a reasonable state with some repairs. Zip is a 1945 (?) model Conmar which is probably a replacement. Lots of wonky stitching on this jacket

Questions:
Is there someone who can tell something about this contract?
Is the jacket redyed ?

Thanks and regards from Jack

It’s a fiscal year 1943 jacket by Sovereign Chicago.

Thanks for the info Jan.

Do you think the jacket has been redyed? It's rather dark...

yes, redyed. the straps and hh facings tell all.
