Faded Glory-The story of MIMURA YOKO SEAL VEST

I made this Tiger Stripe vest in 2003,
It's a fantasic, reproduction in SEAL RIFLEMAN style.
Base on the US NANY MK I LIFE PRESERVER, 8 pouches attached, 3 slanted pouches on left chest,one on right side and 4 on the back.
SEAL RIFLEMAN style NEVER in Tiger Stripe,
That's the way to avoid someone to collect or re-sell it as real Vietnam War item.
But it happened!
This Tiger Stripe vest been sold from eBay auction to TX, USA on OCT. 2003.
In 2004,
A GI whom served in Germany, he said he found this vest in New York, USA and spent a lot of money for this vest.
In 2007,
A French guy said he collect this vest alreday for 15 years!
At that time, he was re-selling my another Tiger Stripe vest which made on FEB. 2007
As:
eBay #220160084569-VERY RARE US NAVY SEAL OR SOG LOCAL MADE JACKET


And stated:
"NOT A FAKE, REPRODUCTION OR COPY, NOT MADE IN JAPAN, TAIWAN, HONG KONG!!!!!!!!!!"

What a joke !

We NEVER sell the reproductions as the real Vietnam War Items!
