US Air Force Vietnam War Era Black Mess Dress Coat 1964 Military Jacket Genuine

Give this beautiful double breasted black military blazer a new life! This authentic Air Force jacket was expertly tailored and issued in 1964, in the midst of the Vietnam War. The style of this jacket is often imitated in fashion, but this is the real, original deal! Tailored by Ippoliti / Tyler Hirsch Company and made in the USA. This "mess jacket" is white with cream accents on the sleeve of the jacket, and boasts metal buttons with the emblem of the United States Air Force on it. Wear this jacket as a fashionable cropped blazer or use it for a reenactment! This jacket has no clear size indicated, as it was custom tailored. I have taken measurements, however, and the approximate measurements are as follows: Pit to pit measurement: 18.5 inches (can fit up to a 37 inch bust/chest measurement) Sleeve length: 28 inches Total length of garment: 23 inches. Please note the last photo, which shows a slight tear in the fabric of the left side. I also have this same jacket in white, so look in my store and message me to make an bundle. :) Feel free to ask questions or make an offer, and thanks!
