Uniqlo military liners? Where did you see these? Or do you mean their down liners?I want a millitary liner for this winter.. What fashion brands make some? I know there's Uniqlo. I heard just going mill surp, that they fit a bit too weird to be worn by themselves.

I think the wonky fit is part of the charm.
Years ago, I almost bought this. Looking back, I wish I picked it up. It's a Czech military liner. Unlike most military liners, this one has a ribbed cuff and matte fabric. Most liners are made from a shinier nylon

Here's a window display of a vintage shop, I believe in Portland, called Velour. They sell one with a slightly different collar shape and without a taped edge. But you can see how it's styled here. This is also a Czech liner.

Here's a vintage US Air Force CWU-9/P Liner. The shape on this one is a little more "standard," but it still has something, like the dropped shoulder seam and slightly boxy fit.

Here's your standard M-65 liner. Notice the shinier fabric, short sleeves, and short body. You usually want to size up on this one.

Here's a fashion version. You can see how the fit has been "normalized."I think it's OK, but misses something from the vintage originals. The name of this brand escapes me at the moment, but they sell for reasonably cheap on eBay. [Edit, just remembered. It's Bronson. Only fifty bucks!)

The problem with vintage milsurp liners is that the fit isn't consistent. They also often fit shorter in the arms and body. The fit is often boxy. It's designed to go into another jacket. So it's often easier to shop for these in person if you can.
What is the secret to things like JJJJound or Cactus Plant Flea Market who seemingly do almost nothing but create hype with all the coool kids ?
Thanks man! The San Diego looks great!@mmmargeologist For super cheapo suit supply did some stuff with super wide lapels. I get the impression for they bought a tom ford suit and copied all the measurements/details.
Edit: I think the San Diego cut was a wide lapel. Other tip, people have them listed as both "Suitsupply" and "Suit Supply" on ebay.
