Austrian Light Dress Jacket, White, Surplus

Join the Love Boat crew or start playing big-band jazz. Or get yourself a classy bar in Casablanca that both friends and enemies frequent. When you buy this jacket, you are already halfway towards your bright future. This lightweight Austrian military jacket is super cheap, sturdy, and looks good even in the demanding disco environment or on a cruise ship. At a tailor, these would cost a fortune.

Features

At least some of these are jackets of the Austrian military jazz musicians. Because there is nothing like acid jazz to make you charge towards the enemy line. But maybe some other troops also had a sense of style. Put this on and go to your local jazz bar with a long raider.

This is a white, quite lightweight, and slim-fit hybrid of a blazer and a uniform jacket. It is designed to work indoors, so it is perfect for clubbing, masquerades, or as a summer jacket. Two buttoned breast pockets, two buttoned pockets on the front, and one buttoned inside breast pocket for tips and secret documents that the resistance spies deliver to your bar.

At least some of these are 50/50 polycotton, but the proportions can vary to some extent. On one shoulder, there is a silver-colored shoulder cord. The rank and branch insignia can vary, but at least the band camp jackets are featured here.

If you don’t like the white color, you can dye these e.g. pink. It might be tricky to get these pitch black, though, because of the polyester content. So, we won’t give you any other guarantees than that the result will be different. Detach the buttons before dyeing.

Size info

The sizes are according to the user's chest circumference and height. You will fit a dress shirt and tie underneath. The sizes are what we have, and there are very few of each, so snatch the one you want fast.

Condition

Used Austrian military surplus but in very good condition for being used. However, since these are white, even the small stains will be visible. So, if you want a new shiny bright white surface, put a few hundred bucks into a new jacket.
