This vintage military surplus sweater was inspiration for a local designer's women's line. We think this is a perfect sweater for your wardrobe even if it was intended for a man! The sweater has no tags left in it that tell us anything but it is a stretchy wool rib knit with v-neck and a cotton blend fabric for elbow patches and epaulets. Fits our mannequin as pictured. She is a solid size 4. Due to stretch of design this could also fit a smaller medium. See measurements.

Most of our auction items are used. Even new clothing sizes can be all over the place, but used clothing is even more so. Because you wouldn't be getting any kind of bargain if you flew out to try the clothing on (or even took the bus or train), we try to help you determine the fit from the comfort of your home or yurt. Here's how: we measure the pertinent areas with the garment laying flat on a table. We do not double any measurements or stretch the fabric. You should find something in your closet that fits well and that has a similar cut or style. Measure it the same way and compare it to our measurements. If you want other measurements or have questions, send them along before you bid. This will help ensure that you are perfectly happy with the item you are bidding on. We give everything a very thorough going over and try to photograph and describe all of the issues we find with an item. Please read descriptions carefully and check all of the photos. Check out our store for more great items.

 

We will ship either USPS priority mail or First Class / Parcel Post your choice. When you win an auction, please let me know which shipping option you prefer.
