About this deal

Custom manufacturing of the correct twelve-ounce, cotton-twill shell to precisely match 1941 US Army specs. and dyed a correct shade of Olive Drab #3 Outer fabric 65% polyester, 35% cotton. Lining 100% polyamide, and insulation 100% polyester. Wash in 40°C / 104°F , do not bleach. Low heat iron and tumbling, if you must. Size info Mind you, I can't speak to its accuracy, as I've never seen/handled an original WW II tanker. But it seems very well made, the materials are excellent (though I suspect that the knits are a wool blend, not 100% wool), and the fit is good... though the arms seem cut very wide and the sleeves are long. Are all tankers made like this, to provide ease of movement in a cramped tank or for handling weapons/gear? Compare your body measures to the listed garment measures and follow the advice found under the SIZING TIPS tab to obtain a good fit.

During World War II, airmen risk their lives with the 100th Bomb Group, a brotherhood forged by courage, loss, and triumph. Recently seen being worn by Brad Pitt on the new Fury film where he leads a Sherman tank crew into action, and many other WW2 US war movies like Saving Private Ryan, and the Band of Brothers series. Custom manufacturing of the correct, two-ply, worsted wool-knit collar, cuffs and waist skirt in Olive Drab Custom manufacturing of the correct 12oz cotton-twill shell to precisely match 1941 US Army specs. and dyed a correct shade of Olive Drab #3 It is best to compare your actual body measures to the listed measures of this product AND follow our advice listed under the SIZING TIPS tab specific to this product to obtain a good fit in this style.

This is highly subjective - what one person may think is too big, another may think fits perfectly. Some garments are cut quite generously and others are cut quite trimly. If comparing measurements of one of our products to another you may own, some individuals will surely find that none or maybe only one area of measure is commonly shared or remotely close to being the same. Ultimately, chest measure is the most important area to properly fit, then all other areas of measure will have to fall into place. And some individuals who are extremely tall may find that body and/or sleeve length are more important to accommodate than even chest measure. Even-numbered sizes: 36-44 regular. Please see our SIZING TIPS for advice on how to get the correct fit. Again, using the measurements listed for this product and information under the MEASURING GARMENTS tab to understand our measuring technique, add half of the shoulder width to the arm length. For example: If the shoulder width is 19” and the arm length is 26”, adding 9.5” (half the shoulder width) to 26” (the arm length) will yield an overall sleeve length of 35.5” in this product.

Washing : Unlike the wool lined Tankers, these are machine washable. However, the fleece will pill up some, especially if a dryer is used. We recommend cold wash and hang dry for longest garment life and least fade. Shrinkage is approximately 1 inch. The shell is the same 100% cotton twill fabric in the WWII US Army olive drab no. 3 shade used on the regular Tankers. Using the measurements listed for this product and information found under the tab entitled MEASURING GARMENTS to understand our measuring technique, please double the chest measure to obtain the total external chest circumference of this garment. For example: If the chest measure listed for size 40 is 24”, doubling this measure yields a 48” external chest circumference.

Yes, that is true, to be fair - and from a search online it was coming out around GBP575, which isn't hugely far off the cost of the Buzz or other, similar options. I could imagine being tempted if I did find one in my size (I find a lot of the Japanese brands stop just shy of the more generous fit I might want in one of these, relative to my frame). It is very nice, and given the lining in particular deviates from milspec (adding greatly to the eternal "Is Travis a vet or a fantasist?" debate), I suspect it has a relatively limited audience.
