As a history teacher I know how important presentations w/ real exhibits are for children to learn. This field jacket and the trousers will allow kids to 'handle' w/out worry for the real thing. Excellent addition to my classroom collection!
I got the M42 paratrooper jacket. Everything about it is great ...almost. The workmanship on the cloth portions are excellent. I ordered tall, it's a perfect tall size. The only problem? The zippers, they are terrible. They catch and get stuck, feeling like they are going to break. It takes numerous up and down attempts to finally get the zipper to close all the way. I'll be looking into getting a new zipper put in the jacket. The one it came with is worthless.
