A wonderfull and worst example of a beautifull ugly M43 jacket straight from a Ardennes farmhouse. Absolutely genuine and the real deal!
It’s a pretty big size  and still wearable. But I guess it will look much better on a manequin to get that worn and tired GI-look!
The jacket and especially the collar has wear and tear. The collar has some stiff spots.

There’s no patch nor was there a patch or so ever mounted.
Pocketlabel gone – No 1943 blablabla stamp, only -5509 or so / no label in neck.
