JWA-0001 WWII Japanese (Rabbit Fur Linned) Winter Flight Suit

This item is listed for historical interest only. It is not for sale.

This is a WWII Japanese (Rabbit Fur Linned) Winter Flight Suit in overall fair to good condition. The flight suit is produced of a heavy brown canvas material and is lined in rabbit fur.  The collar is additionally made of rabbit fur and is in exceptionally nice shape.  The approximate size is a 38" chest but the total length from the bottom of the leg to the collar is 58".  The flaws with this flight suit is moderate amount of staining to the front of the right leg.  Additionally the stitching to part of the zipper has come apart.  It appears that the threads simply fell out and it could be re-sewn back into the pants leg.  The left leg has some light staining but the zipper appears to function normally.  The upper left pocket has one tear that is approximately 2" long and one snag to the fabric directly below.  The pocket in the right rear still retains the original power cord for the electrically heated suit.  Overall a nice piece and rare to find even with the flaws that are present.
