These HBT reproductions are really outstanding. I haven't seen anyone else's new repros, but mine are the best I have ever seen. All my HBT's are made in the mid-war shade OD#7, as adopted in 1943.
What period does this HBT uniform reproduce?
This uniform set reproduces the 1942 Pattern HBT, which was adopted in 1943. It includes the gas flap, a feature often missing from original uniforms. The uniform is made in the mid-war shade OD#7, which was also adopted in 1943.
How accurate is this reproduction?
This is an accurate reproduction of the US HBT Jacket and Trouser. It includes the chemical warfare flaps, which were a feature of the original design. The material's pattern is very close to the Army HBT weave.
What are the trousers like?
The trousers are part of the HBT set and are generally well-regarded. There have been instances where an incorrect size was shipped, so it is advisable to check the order upon arrival. The material and buttons are consistent with the jacket.
