What historical period does this battledress represent?
This reproduction is of the early Suits, Aircrew pattern. It is not the later War Service Dress. The main difference between the two patterns is the internal field dressing pocket on the trousers.
How accurate is the reproduction?
The battledress is made of the correct weave, colour, and weight for the period. It is lined with the correct shade of Drill. The overall look is authentic.
How does the battledress fit?
The sizing is spot-on and fits true to size. The battledress blouse generally needs no alteration. The trousers are consistently described as extra long, allowing for alteration to achieve a perfect fit.
What is included in the package?
The package includes the battledress jacket and trousers. The product description specifies the early Suits, Aircrew pattern. Other items like officers peaked caps, cravats, rank braid, or wings are not included.
What colour is the battledress?
The colour is generally considered near enough spot on. However, one jacket was a subtly but noticeably different shade from the trousers. One jacket was also described as a little too grey, not matching a bluer RAF Field Service Cap.
Do I need to size up for layering?
You should order your normal size rather than a size larger to allow for a jumper. The bigger size will not be needed. The fit is generally accurate to sizing.
