Thanks Ade.. If I can ask... I know that years of experience helps.. but what do you see that makes the shirt original and the shorts KM?

I have an original pair of KM shorts and the clues include the color, the boxy shape, the little utility pocket, the buttons on the pockets and the belt loops. You can find some of these details on other tropical items but in this configuration it is clearly KM. Even without seeing the stamp this was evident to me. Both nice pieces! NH

Can anyone advise what kind of shoulder boards belong on this shirt? And where can I get a pair to complete the shirt? It seems that the shoulder boards and the buttons have an unusual way to fasten the boards. Are the buttons also a tan pebble type..to match the shirt?
