@Maynard Friedman high inflation since the war???! I only heard the price of the jacket and made my excuses with eyes watering. Better importing provided it's marked as low value.

@Toegun indeed mate and yes very helpful staff and a really good shop... they are building up quite a collection which is always good to see...

We crossed posts... that would be a fine choice @Broark

I tried on the CSF WW2 type 1 in Clutch Café earlier this week... very impressive... so well constructed, great denim colour and character, felt a nice weight 13/14oz, relatively boxy with vintage length... all that I've read really but always good to try first hand... definitely one for my list... (* eye watering shop price though)...

Black Sign's Vocalion waist overalls are a good example... https://masuya1997.com/item/black-sign-15oz-vocalion-waist-overalls/

Yeah mate 44. My mother made sure I ate all my shredded wheat :).

Roy's on top form once again with these R01s!

@edmond spot on chinos!!

Thanks! I wondered what the length reaction would be. The count is only 4 (At Last, Post, MF, Samurai; sending Orslow back and won't be wearing Ande in Eastbourne any more ). Very tame for this community. Size 44 Ed. Pleased to see you don't think it too short! Boots are Viberg. Cheers!

Welcome @Pedro and thanks! This is the link to the Mister Freedom site and this particular denim (there are other denims used too) http://www.misterfreedom.com/ranch-blouse-okinawa-edition.html I got mine from Rivet and Hide but they're sold out. Pants Shop Avenue would be worth a look too. Do check the sizing table as that is what matters to decide what would work for you. These come up reasonably roomy and shrink a bit too. The link above has a table with all this info. Do post your pics if you get one. Happy hunting!

@bartlebyyphonics ditto no expert in type 3s but always imagine a slim fit all round (had a slim one some time back that I liked so think of that (ahem cough cough Dries Van Noten)). Regarding fit... I think a mix of dimensions would be ideal, but always open to other opinions, i.e. 4 fits good on shoulders, length good however probably too tight on chest and lower back. 5 a little big on shoulders, a tad long with a tad much back room, but chest good. Well... I hadn't even thought about the arms! Good spot and, now you mention it, I agree but think I could live with it. Would be good to compare other brands now though. Comments from type 3 experts out there gratefully received! It's a shame the atom has been split already, otherwise, we, on this forum could do it together! Fwiw the above is with only a tee so a thicker top would give a better fit on the 5 and make the 4 too tight. The fabric... is decent, ok, would be interesting to see how it develops... (I tried to tut and ignore the in-house comment of 'has it been washed with a tissue'). To your liveliness point... while I was cogitating away, an At Last jacket appeared out of the blue as if by magic diverting my attention... I'd given up hope... so that's now on it's way... it's hard not to flit about when the choices out there are so good So... type 3 now on ice, to be picked up again soon though...
