None

Looks like the same type Willi showed us recently - same construction faults.

Hi

Obviously a repro, no "gruen meliert" fabric...but it would be ok for reenacting. Where did you see it, is it 4 sale and what size is it, please?

cheers

type 2 smock...

...on this one, like on the first one it looks like the chest pocket flap goes all the way up into the shoulder seam. Was this the case with original step ins? I thought only type 3 smocks had this but I may be wrong...

thanks

Hi John,
Just to be clear about what you are saying, they are making a repop of the greunmeliert fabric now? Or is the smock a repop made with original fabric? I figured it would only be a matter of time. Thanks!

Hi Marc,
Look at this photo, and then, if you have not already, read this:

afterwards, tell me what you think, and I'll tell you what I think.
