My Take on British "Junglies"

Ok,heres my take on the Jungle shirts ONLY going by what i have myself and going by the labels etc.

I have NO idea what material they are eg cotton or poly cotton.

Early type--Lightweight material,zip+button closure,old type size label,WW2 type mustard coloured buttons,pen pocket on left arm,NO pocket on right arm.

EXACT in every way as previous jacket but slightly later issue due to the size label.

Exact in layout,materials as other 2 but has later green buttons and added FFD pocket on Right arm.

My final shirt showing the evolution of the jungle shirts.Im not interested in the modern junk so no S95 or later shirts for me!!!!!

While following a similar layout with zip and button closure this is a departure from the other styles in many ways-tea bag construction,different buttons and now only a small pocket on left sleeve.

By no means Gospel but my take on things going from what i have in my collection and hope it can be of help to others.

Thats the evolution up to the rubbish S95 issue of which i have no interest in whatsoever.

For what it's worth... this checks out with my examples perfectly. I don't have any variants different from this either.

No worries

Just been having a rummage through one of my various kitbags of stored stuff and just pulled out another almost MINT early Jungle Shirt-SIZE 1 which will be up for sale if anyone interested.

Thanks
