Which unit is that?

I had a original Briggs lid also back then

Sorry for the quality and not quite original, but walking down the street, I spied in a shop some photos of McQueen in the Great Escape Hilts jacket. I may grab one as they are « only £6.50. He does look ever so cool but are those trousers period accurate?

Another question .., who makes the most accurate repro of the British Denison Paratrooper Smock?

Hello Burt, I am in no way a Denison connaiseur but when I was trying to get the best repro out there I did try Franck Brown at pegassus-drive and actually put my name on his waiting list but still no news and that's 2 years ago... But man his stuff is amazing.

Burt I have a Belgie one I can send you pics of, they run pretty large so would probably fit you

Given how tight fitting Mc Queens chinos are I thought I read they were based on 50/60’s era

 

[Micawber]

Agreed, they are far from the issue cut chinos. His have the period bought or wardrobe tailored snug, hipster with zip look.

I'm surprised now how 50's Belgie smocks are so expensive and hard to pin down, especially moon and ball print, 10 years ago I could have bought a box full of abl smocks, not now
