dsteele Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 I'm looking to buy a wool uniform, adult, from the 1970's. I've always wanted one and usually wear the modern poly-wool uniforms. Does anyone know where I can get one in a Medium (38" chest) shirt and a 30' waist? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Unc.

hops_scout Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 30' waist waist huh? That may be a toughie;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsteele Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Hopper -- It may not be that tall of an order! Remember, people were smaller and shorter back in the olden days! Your old uncle, Unc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eamonn Posted September 17, 2004 Share Posted September 17, 2004 Other then E-bay and placing an ad in your Council newsletter or on their Wed page. I don't have any brilliant ideas. Hey Hops, do you think if Unc were to start doing a few push-ups it might build him up? He could of course join me in my diet which is based on dough-nuts, coffee and other liquid refreshment.

dsteele Posted September 17, 2004 Author Share Posted September 17, 2004 Interesting that both of my good friends (which I hope are not all of my good friends ) only take my measurements into consideration. Granted, a man who's chest is only 38" in diameter, and who's waist is only 30" in diameter is a small man. I'll give ya'll that one. However, how many of you men have an 8 inch drop between your chest size and waist size? Most men's suits come with a six inch drop 42" coat comes with a 38" waist, etc. What I wear is called an atheletic cut -- or standard uniform for soldiers. Do your own push ups Eamonn! (Wishing I could remember how to do the little smiley with the tongue stuck out, and having a bit of fun . . .) Unc. Still and all, I'd like that wool uniform. Any help would be appreciated.

hops_scout Posted September 18, 2004 Share Posted September 18, 2004 I was wondering when/if you were going to catch on UNC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsteele Posted September 18, 2004 Author Share Posted September 18, 2004 Hopper -- I'm all for fun and would have eventually caught on. But I'm a guy that when I ask a question, I really expect an answer. Tout le Monde -- where can I buy the uniform? Unc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
