Description
This is a vintage U.S. Army woodland camouflage Nomex Flyer's shirt in size Medium/Long. It is in used, good condition. There are no holes or tears. There is ghosting where the shoulder sleeve insignia was applied on the left sleeve. The right collar Velcro swatch is loose. The shirt is faded & the black branches in the woodland camo pattern are now dark grey. Aviator's were the first soldiers to receive fire resistant Nomex uniforms during Vietnam. They quickly became popular, both for their life preserving qualities & their comfort. Nomex uniforms are known for the pajama like quality. This woodland variant was made to resemble the BDU with four front patch pockets. Those patches are secured by Velcro. It also features a left sleeve shoulder pen pocket, Velcro waist & cuff adjustments & a pair of flaps near the armpits with openings whose purpose I cannot discern. The shirt has a zippered front secured by Velcro & a collar yoke that is secured by Velcro. Measurements: Sleeve (Shoulder to Cuff): 26" Chest (Armpit to Armpit): 24.5" Length (Bottom of Collar to Hem): 32" Woodland Camouflage Nomex Flyer's Shirt Size Medium - Long #2
