Hard to tell from the photos, but the splinter-B pattern looks wrong.

Can we see the back ? What make are the zips and snaps ?

The pattern is not correct. The construction and interior look perfect, this reminds me of some of the better repros I've seen. Like Steve, I'd like to know the markings of the snaps and zippers. Is there a chance of close up photos showing construction details so we can see just how accurate this smock is?

[Robban75]

the jacket was just sold on e-bay for 431 usd and i didn´t

Well, that should tell you something
Unless you are a re-enactor, you are lucky to still have your $431, and now you can spend this on something Fj that is authentic. Perhaps a nice late war jump badge?

I agree. The construction is not correct. The colors are also very odd, but it is also not a reproduction that I am familiar with.

Hello,
I don't think it is one of Tom Gulliver's smocks, but one of my guys has a Lost Battalions smock which looks similar to this one colourwise. Maybe this is a tuned LB?

best regards,

This translates to " I don't like it ! " in American.

Thanks Steve, I couldn't figure how we went from smocks to pants!

I don't think it is a LB smock. But, I don't know who made it. The snap cover color looks very good.
