Description
Long sleeve shirt made from 50% wool. The other 50% isn’t stated but most likely it is cotton. This makes this material warm without being itchy to the skin.
These shirts have a long back so it won’t come out of your trousers when you bend forward. The fabric stretches a little so that it fits closely on your body. This shirt was part of a full body suit together with a ”Long John” under trousers made from the same material.
During the decades after WW2 the Dutch army used a mix and match of allied army items. Both reusing enormous stockpiles that were left behind by the forces that fought on Dutch soil and new products of the same WW2 designs. This model is a identical copy, both material end design, of the US Army Thermal Undershirt used in the 2nd world war. So it can be used for WW2 re-enacting. It was issued until the early 1990’s. After that these long sleeve shirts were made from cotton.
