Mostly pleased (2023-10-02)
While I received great advice on the size and the delivery was good, I cannot award 5 stars. The M42 was all I expected save for what appears to have been an erroneously sewn on pocket on the right side that appears to have been dismantle and sewn back on a bit lower where it was supposed to have been. Unfortunately, the strip where the pocket was sewn originally left a telltale row of broken threads that I was able to fix, up to a point, by shaving the protruding threads. Now, unless you know where to look, it's almost unnoticeable. Otherwise, I cannot wait for the weather to cool off enough to start to wear it.

Carbone - US
very good (2021-11-06)
Super fast shipping. Looks great, solidly constructed. Only problem - one of the belt loops ripped off almost immediately - might need a bit of reinforcement there.

Excellent craftsmanship and super fast delivery (2020-05-03)
I was only told about this company 2 days before placing the order. I had never heard of it before, but thought I would give it a try. Very pleased with the quality and fast shipping.

Great jacket and fantastic service (2020-04-07)
I have had my eye on a paratrooper jacket since my 5th binge watch of "Band of Brothers". I ordered my actual size and after the first wash/dry the sleeves fit perfectly and it cuts in nicely at the waist. Excellent service!

M42 Standard Jump Jacket (2020-03-04)
First, shipping speed is outstanding! From time of order to deleivery in the Milwaukee area of USA, only 5 days!

I have four other M42 jackets from two other suppliers. The quality and craftsmanship of the WPG M42 is good. Size is spot on, but wash in cold water and dry on low or no heat.

The material color that WPG is off by just a little. The M42 I received is almost a "coyote tan" rather than the soft tan or OD3 shade. It will work for my use, but just be aware of the color difference.

Good sewing and personally, I like all snap hardware is black.

Daniel - BE
Excellent Quality and Price (2018-11-16)
I purchased this jacket as I have purchased one previously as well as others from various manufacturers. I prefer the look and feel of this one over the ATF version and this ones cost is better than both the ATF and WWII Impression versions. The quality is excellent as well with the pricing, it becomes a win-win purchase.

Great jacket.

Nice Jacket (2018-10-08)
Fast shipping and very nice jacket. I ordered my suit size 48L and the fit was fine with some room to layer. My normal outerwear jackets are a 2xl or xxl.

Swiger - US
Superb item, super fast delivery (2018-10-01)
Really pleased with this, made to a very high standard. Having read sizing advice and reviews I opted for 38 Reg. My usual size is Medium-Long or 40L (I'm a 40 chest, 72 inches tall, sleeve length 25 inches). This is a perfect fit if, like me, you go for a more fitted look. If you want a looser fit maybe go for the 40. Sleeve length is good, a Long would have been way too long. Shipping to UK was very fast, got it quicker than for many mail order items within the UK. Super product, fast delivery.

U.S. Paratrooper M42 Jacket (2018-04-27)
Great quality. Fast delivery. Ordered my normal size, 44L, which proved to be too big. After communications with WPG, I ordered a 42R, which fits perfectly. Very pleased with garment and excellent customer service.

Krupa - US
perfect fit (2017-06-14)
I really appreciate that wpg have items in long size. Jacket is a perfect fit on me! (6'3" ordered a 40L). only issue is that zipper closes to the right and not left.

Fits if you buy 1 size fitter (2016-09-08)
The look and the quality of the vest is pretty good, but you really have to be careful with size and take minimum 1 size fitter than your own.

I wear original 40R clothes but I took a 38R jacket and it fits, although i find it little bit long.

Not as "oversized" as some comments may indicate. Zipper is Far superior to the U.S. Mountain Jacket.

Good product (2014-05-20)
The jacket is ok. Good color, good size of pocket. The Talon zipper is very well made.
But the jacket (40R) is really too long !!! I have to make an adjustment of about 5 centimeters from the waist to bottom of the jacket...

M-42 Paratrooper Jacket ( unreinforced ) (2013-03-06)
Your quality has improved over the years with what seems to be better zippers and fit is in alignment with the sizes. Thank you for your attention to the details of your product. As re-enactors, we are hard on our gear and uniforms. The veterans and their families insist on seeing the best uniforms to represent them at tactical battles, living history events, and parades.

Good product but too long for my height but I can get that fixed.

Excellent Jacket (2011-12-21)
I was told that the WPG jacket was not as good as the ones from other makers. They are DEAD WRONG! The price, fit and color are amazing. Super fast shipping! Will recommend to my unit for sure.

Tooooooo biiiiiiigggggg.... (2011-12-10)
The jacket is toooooo big for me. I´m 190 cm tall and I order the long size. It was an error. I returned it and order one size small in standard size, not long. The zippers seems so fragil.
The shipment very quick. Four days from UAE to my house in Spain.
I am waiting for the new jacket one size small.

Barquin - ES
awsome (2011-10-02)
Fit almost perfectly...only slight problem was that the sleeves were a little long...but that is fixiable...other than that totally worth it

Blue - US
Well Made (2011-09-13)
Great Jacket and 5 day shipping. Way better than my ebay m42 jump suit. Pretty baggy, but its suppose to look like that. The coloring is pretty good but i recommend you get it dirty or age it to give it a gritty look.

Paratrooper Jacket (2011-08-04)
Had a hard time getting this jacket from another site. I received an e-mail from WPG saying that they had them in stock. Oredered it and received an e-mail stating that the size and type were not available but, the other option was just fine. Thank you for great service!

Great customer service, Jacket looks good - tho arms are longer than I would like, but that's minor. Short Body Lengths would be welcome.
