Parade Tunic, Hose and repro Busby of a Officer 8th Hussars

[JohnM]

Sorry about including a repro item but it's been very tough to find an orignal one.

 

[JohnM]

oops forgot I had the boots too!

 

[Richard Houf]

Sir, Is the uniform repro or orginial ?. If repro where did you get it and does anyone make repro Hussar uniforms either parade or field type ?.
thanks,
Richard Houf

Richard,

I believe he states the uniform is original except for the Pelzmütze which is a repro.

Mr. Houf,

As Mike has already explained the uniform is original. The Pelzmütze I believe to be a reproduction.

Here are some sites you may check for reproduction items but I have no further information about them or their merchandise.

Wonderful find, well done. Hussars uniform makers http://www.uniformandtunics.co.uk and http://www.officerandgentlemen.co.uk both offer a bespoke reproduction service for those of you who wish to have a new hussars pelisse or dolman made for a perfect fit. They create all types of uniforms and work from images and photos and drawings.

Very nice! I can understand purchasing a repro, I did that with a 6th Kuerassier, just to fill my own desire to look at something similar (but not quite right) until I found an original. Your Pelzmutze looks much nicer than the repro Kuerassierhelm I purchased.
