These were sent into me as original, and I thought they were when I got them.  They are extremely convincing, but did not pass scrutiny at this year's SOS.  I was able to convince the owner, so they are offered here as reproductions.  These are extremely well made, and nobody has seen a second pair.  While they could be late war originals, I cannot in good conscience sell them as originals.  These are bullion, and piping, buckram and wool seem 100% original.  The only criticism was that the bullion embroidery was not fine enough.
