  • 1 of 7
 

An authentic slice of Korean War history! Up for sale is a genuine 1952 dated U.S. Army mechanic's coverall, made from the legendary and highly durable Herringbone Twill (HBT) cotton. This particular piece showcases an interesting field modification: while tagged as a size 36 Long, both the sleeves and trouser legs have been period-shortened and hemmed (likely by a mechanic for safety and mobility). A fantastic item for collectors, reenactors, or vintage workwear enthusiasts.
