Bulgarian Air Force Greatcoat, Gray, Surplus

If the combat rags of the Bulgarian army look like crap, the parade clothes are from another planet. Or at least from the neighboring count-, ah, forget it and see for yourself.

Features

The picture says it all. If you ever have coveted a pompous military greatcoat, this just might be the ticket. Or why not change the buttons to something less flashy and you've changed the look to a more down to the earth -style... but still a bit pompous. You'll definitely earn that village weirdo's title you've always wanted.

We have two kinds:

• Enlisted men's coat has epaulets, regular rear tab, and usually a sleeve patch.
• The officer version has a ribbon around the collar, cuffs, and an ornamented tab. No epaulets.

Made from proper wool, not plastic like most clothes today. This means you should be careful with washing. Better not do it at all, airing out will usually suffice. However, if you must, hand wash the coat at about 30 degrees Celsius (86 F) with a wool cleaning solution and hang it to dry.

Sizing

The sizes are the user’s height and chest circumference in centimeters. Multiply it by 2.54 and you get the imperial ones. The fit is snug, as these are not made for winter warfare. So if you want lots of stuff underneath, go with a bigger size.

Condition

Bulgarian military surplus. In used, but OK condition. There might be some signs of use here and there. Loose threads, pocket lint, and such.
