Jacket/coat - what is this?

Al-muell · 09-27-2004, 01:59 AM

First, I was told it's "soviet WW2 cavalery jacket". Later I was told it's a "ww2 coat remade to civilian jacket". It costed too low to be any in my opinion. However, it looks really old and seems to have military origins.
What can it be?

That is funny! I was thinking exactly the same thing but didn't know how to phrase it.

Such dirty old jackets can be purchased at any flea market around here. I think my grandfather have one or two from the WWII era and the 1950-ties. Simply winter coats!
