About This Jacket:

This Monarch M-445B would be a candidate for the perfect original. It's never been worn (maybe put on a couple times) and even the buttons haven't been used yet. The cuffs still have tags on them stating "15.95' which may have been the sale price from one of many companies that sold WWII surplus. The sheepskin is still straight and shows no shape-alteration from being worn. The outside of the hide is still extremely flexible and strong, with beautiful stitching, and note the white pencil placement marks by the pockets on the body. And for the size, you can tell this jacket is monstrous- too large for me, and I like size 46 originals.

Collection:
