What kind of uniform is this?

I don't think it is Navy. They would be almost black in colour. This one is dark olive colour.

Viking,

I thing that Vvadim is talking about the jacket, not the gymnastyorka. In this case, it is indeed blue.

Believe it or not, I was talking about the jacket too. But I hve just moved to a different computer and it looks a lot bluer than on the last one. On the other monitor it looked dark olive.
Sorry for the confusion! :cry:

I got a gymnastiorka too some years ago and it looks very different from all the ones I´ve seen. It has no breast pockets and the color is lighter (it is not for the age). Buttons are also unmarked. I´m starting to think that it is a fake since there´s nothing that determines which year it is from. And I paid $80 for this eventual cr@p.
There's nothing in the streets
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Are now parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

The Who, Won't get fooled again

Not neccessarily, there were Gyms that were used during the war that had no breast pockets. The lack of them does not automatically make it a fake, and the fact that there are no date markings on the buttons could make it a wartime example.
Any pics?
