Long sleeves Shirt (for under a Fliegerbluse)

Post by Pietje »

I am looking around for a shirt that Fallschirmjäger used for under their Fliegerbluse while in combat. Any suggestions? I came across shis one...

Hi Pietje,

Um, didn't know they were doing those in China, blink and you'll miss out. Or Richard Underwood has Jersey Rayon shirt £29 (SKU#: 58).

Thanks

Darren

For combat wear I would go for the pull over grey'green shirt with the two pleated chest pockets that Richard is selling - The blue grey fleck one is fine for more formal dress.

Hee Pietje!

I normally use a WW II Italian army dress shirt in the exact style as the one you've pictured in flecked blue. It's been in use since 1999 now in various battle re-enactments and has never let me down. It is a greenish shirt, close to the colour most of the guys use but the quality is waaaay beyond the average Joe's.

Never aim for less than the best!
