Question about the product

Description

We have copied the earliest 1912 pattern uniform, not the 1917 pattern that everyone else has made. These were used on the Mexican Border, during mobilization, and by many of doughboys of the AEF.

What historical period does this tunic represent?

This tunic is a reproduction of the earliest 1912 pattern uniform. It was used on the Mexican Border and during mobilization. Many doughboys of the American Expeditionary Forces also used this pattern.

How accurate is the reproduction compared to original uniforms?

The wool serge fabric is very close to original uniforms in colour, look, feel, weight, and weave. The patterning and assembly are also considered accurate. It is difficult to distinguish from an original at a distance.

Are there any specific details that differ from original garments?

Some tunics include sewn-in shoulder pads, which were not a feature of original enlisted-grade garments. These can be removed to achieve a more authentic fit and appearance. The buttons are acceptable but can be replaced with originals if preferred.

What are the typical sleeve and body lengths?

The sleeve length is generally considered good or reasonable. The body length is a point of variation, with some finding it fits great and others wishing it were a little longer. The cut of the new production run has narrower shoulders, waist suppression, and small armholes, similar to an original.

What are the measurements for the different sizes?

The measurements are provided for tunics laid flat on a table. For example, a size 38 has a 22-inch chest (armpit to armpit), a 24-inch sleeve, and a 30-inch length. A size 44 has a 25-inch chest, a 26-inch sleeve, and a 30-inch length.
