Size chart
40 REG
For reference, for people up to around 170cm tall,
I think it will fit well for someone with an average build.
This time, I'd like to give you a feel for the uniform.
I thought it would be nice to try wearing it in a more casual, relaxed style, which is why I decided to sell it.
There are different ways to wear it.
Even when worn neatly, it has a refined elegance that sets it apart from workwear.
I think it depends on how you combine them.
Later, it seems that this type of flight suit was never adopted.
You can catch a glimpse of the trial and error involved in development at that time.
This is a valuable test sample.
