Quite good copy (2014-03-28)
This is a close copy however the top pockets are wrong, they taper where as they should be straight cut. I have good quality images of my grandfather wearing his if WPG want them for reference . The items arrived quickly and overall I am very happy with WPG

Very nice however the skirt was 2-3" low in the rear compared to the front! The hem heads downhill aft of the side seams. So a pretty simple fix but this should not be necessary. This one could be an anomaly. Inventory should be inspected. Let it hang holding the centerline of the shoulder strap and you'll see this.
Otherwise, the 44 was very Regular in the body but fine in the sleeve length which for me was good because I am a 44L. But this Regular doesn't fit my Long torso as well as his KD jacket. Offering Long sizes in Bush Jackets is a good idea because I think these were all quite long in the body. My original 1943 certainly is. Maybe phase out the Regular? On my 44L torso, where the web belt has to go to clear the lower pocket flaps is quite near the ribs and no matter what the War Department said about why the ribs are important to the P37 system, we don't usually wear the belts that high now do we? On the other hand this is a body shape issue. If you are a 44L you might like his KD jacket fit better. Or get this bush jacket in a 46 and have the body taken in?
