Shirt is in great condition! Shows some wear and fading. Has ghosting from an Armor patch above the left pocket. Has some pulls in the fabric and one small hole but otherwise no major issues! Size and contract stamp has faded away but this lines up as a Small compared to another Small marked HBT shirt I own. This is considered a 1st Pattern as the earliest shirts were made with left over Tack Buttons as used on the WWII HBTs. Can fit up to a size 40 chest. These were only made in one “height” so fits up to anyone 5’ 10”.
