Best quality repro UK enlisted man's shirt I have yet to handle!
Having handled a few originals. I can say, that of all the repros I have handled, the WPG version is the closest, to the originals I have handled, in both apperance, colour and materials.
Of couse almost endless variations of this shirt was made, so YMMW.
The thing I like most about the WPG shirt is the fact that the fabric is, though still somewhat itchy, not at all as irritating as most other repros on the market today. A common misconception, when it comes to UK WWII gear, is "the itchier/rougher, the more authentic". This is, at least not in my experience, the case w. the originals I have handled.
A lot of reviews here advice one to go down a size for this shirt. I did not do that (due to prior experience w. WPG sizes) - and I am glad I didn't. The shirt fits me perfectly in my "normal" size.
