Good quality, inaccurate tags
(2022-01-31)
My M41 just came in the mail a little bit ago. My first impressions are that it is definitely a good quality garment and feels durable. The color is accurate, and the materials feel accurate as well. My only complaints are one, the big ugly white WPG tag in the back of the jacket, it's a bit of an eye sore, inaccurate, and I'll probably end up ripping it out. Two, it lacks a manufacturers tag in the pocket like all original M41s have. WPG could've easily put the info thats on the big ugly tag in the back onto a more correct tag in the pocket. This tag issue is the only reason I took off a star. There are many reenactors, collectors, and historians that are much pickier than me and I will say, the tag issue will DEFINITELY chase people away from buying this jacket. WPGs M41 is a solid item, if they fixed the tag issue, it'll be an even hotter item than what it is now. Keep perfecting on this already great item! My only other issue was that it's a tad short on me. I'm a tall skinny guy with long arms. I contacted Wajed and he was more than happy to give me measurements so I could buy the right size. Going off of the measurements I was sent, I opted for the 38R, the smallest size (I have a 34 chest), when the 38L mightve been more ideal, but I didn't want to buy too long. So I went for the 38R and the sleeve are a bit short. This one may be on me. But I'm sure there were plenty of guys back in WWII who were tall, skinny, and long armed like myself who had sleeves a bit short. I'd love to get a better size, but I guess the one I have will have to do.
Excellent jacket

I could not be more please, I ordered a size up from what was recommended for slightly more room to layer, this is an excellent quality jacket and the color is perfect. I previously purchased the m1943 uniform and was very pleased with that as well.
