Grades -
- Grade 1.5 - Previously issued and over all in great shape. Some small markings near the bottom of the jacket no more than 1cm big and quite faint. Looks as if the previous owner removed their rank patches as shown by the outline (likely chalk) on the right sleeve, likely matching the rank of Colour Sergeant. Price reflects these slight flaws.
Any questions please feel free to ask!

Stunning and distinctive modern surplus from Great Britain. Issued to Royal Marine Commandos, it is designed for use in ceremonial occasions, it is akin to the army's No. 2 dress uniform, but with a few key distinctions. The jacket comes in a shade used only by the marines and features darkened bronze buttons which feature the emblem of the Royal Marines.
The jacket has 4 external pockets, all of which can be buttoned shut and also features 2 internal slit pockets for smaller items. Shoulder epaulettes attach prestigious sashes and rank badges, along with other distinctive decorations. The jacket is lined with a sateen material and is made of a 100% quality wool material. Truly something special for those who do absolutely phenomenal work.
For colour, "Lovat's Green" is a lovely blend of mossy greens and browns, a subtle combination that adds depth to a fantastic pair of trousers. This is likely as close as the British have to a "field grey" colour.
