Japanese uniform (type 3?)

[Alex Wictor]

Hello guys,
I would like to buy japanese uniform ( see attached photos).
Is it an oryginal one?
The seller said it's grey (no green).








What is your opinion about?
Regards,
Alex

Yes, it's an unissued example of a Type 3 uniform introduced in 1943. More on this model here.

Your's is a medium size made in 1944, just before they switched
to the 2-pocket, short M44 Wartime Contingency model.

It is a type 3. Unissued manufactured in Showa 19 which is 1944. That’s all I can tell. Others can tell you more about what the label says.

Nick beat me too it by a few seconds!
