Condition:
These vests are all in visibly used condition with varying extents of use-related wear or damage typical of military workwear. Vests may have small cuts and holes in the fabric surface; evidence of repairs; fraying edges; discolouration; or small stains. Additionally, vests may have some missing or mis-matched buttons as the listing photographs show. Vests will be especially creased and dusty as a result of long-term storage but can be cleaned up with relative ease.
Please view the listing photographs to see details of the item condition.
Size Guidance:
Due to the fact that the original size markings have worn off and become illegible on most vests; we have taken the effort to measure the exact chest size of each garment so you can be sure that the size you order is the size you will receive.
Please understand that the size options shown are measurements of the garment itself and not the intended chest size of the wearer. To ensure the vest is not too tight, we recommend ordering a size which is at least 2 inches above your own chest measurement; or larger if you intend to wear more clothing layers under the vest.
If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask.
