Original Item: Only One Available. This is a wonderful example of a Pre-WWII junior officer’s Evening Dress A uniform coat. It shows signs of moderate wear and is very ornately designed! The interior pocket label is named to a Lieutenant, but it is rather difficult to read but it appears to be Lt. Chris S. Baker, though our search results came up nil, making this a wonderful research opportunity!

Evening dress "A" For male officers, it consists of an evening coat with sleeve ornamentation, strip collar, white waistcoat, and white shirt with piqué bib. The stripe on the midnight-blue trousers is a thin red stripe inside a gold embroidered stripe. Female officers wear a mess jacket with scarlet collar, a white dress shirt, a red cummerbund, and a long skirt. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

Evening dress "B" is identical to Evening Dress "A" except men wear a scarlet waistcoat (general officers) or cummerbund (all other officers), and women may wear a short skirt. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

SNCO Evening Dress Male staff non-commissioned officers wear a semi-formfitting mess jacket with a black bow tie and sky blue trousers. Female SNCOs wear identically the same Evening Dress as female officers, minus the sleeve ornamentation and placement of rank. Both wear the jackets with historic 1890s-era rank insignia sewn on the sleeves. Miniature medals and badges are worn.

A blue boatcloak with a scarlet liner is optional. Junior officers not required to possess Evening Dress may substitute Blue or Blue-White dress "A". It is appropriate for such occasions as state functions, inaugural receptions and dinners, and formal dinners.

This is a wonderful uniform set in great condition. Nothing beats the regular enlisted Marine Dress Blues but the Evening Dress is a close runner up! All buttons but one appear to be present and as this is an evening dress they are purely ornamental. There is some fading present on all the bullion but there is no significant damage present on the exterior but there is stitching loss on the interior red lining.

This is a wonderful addition to any military uniform collection! Comes more than ready to be further research and displayed. Semper Fidelis Marines!

Meeting my expectations....
Size: 14-15, Color: Grey/White Check
I am a male with pretty large feet (Mens size 14US) and wanted some very warm slippers to wear around the house. I have nerve issues in my toes and if I don't keep my feet very warm they start to hurt. I wanted something both comfortable and warm. I received these a few days ago and so far they have done a great job at keeping my feet warm. The linings are thick and fluffy and the bottoms feel like they have a memory foam inner sole in them. The tops can either be worn up or rolled down. The actual soles are a soft leather-like material. They are thicker than normal cloth, but not hard like rubber soled slippers (I actually wanted something that was more of a slipper and less of a "shoe"). The only down side is that they don't really seem to have a left and right to them (both slippers seem identical), and for awhile no matter how I wore them, they felt a bit like they were on the wrong feet. However, they seem to have formed themselves to my feet and now (through wearing them) it definitely feels like there is a left and a right. I don't know how long these will last, but they were not expensive, so if I get a few months of wear from them, I will be happy and will just order another pair when these wear out. They aren't the most attractive slippers in the world, but they aren't horrible looking and they are very functional.

for polar fleece slippers with leather soles, these are quite nice
Size: 8-9, Color: Red/Black Check
I bought these to replace some Mug Lugs slippers last fall after they had started to come apart from barely a year of use (they were knitted) and have been wearing them constantly since then. The polar fleece does easily pill somewhat but get a hard use and are quite comfortable too. I wear these in the house most of the time as my feet do not like to wear shoes all day. They are comfortable, and do seem to hold up well. The only other issue is until I get my office chair mat replaced, these catch and can cause problems and have a little, but not enough to worry too much about. They supposedly have an anti slip design on the bottom, but if flour falls on the kitchen floor, not so slip resistant. I chose these as one, they are red, but also plaid and like them a lot. Hopefully, I get more than a years use out of them. I have had several polar fleece sock type slippers similar to these in the past, and the last polar fleece pair in Dk Blue and from Land End finally after several years of constant use, the stitching began to come apart and the sole was separating from the body of the slipper on one slipper. They do keep the feet warm, with or without socks and can, at times, get my feet too warm but I enjoy them quite a bit.

Great toy to play fetch with the dogs.
Color: Black/White, Size: Large
These balls are a great dog toy to play fetch with your dogs. This not the first ball I have gotten for the dogs. Just the right size and weight for medium sized dogs. I have less concerns about them possibly choking on these soccer balls versus tennis balls. So I can leave them out for them to play with. The are easy to inflate using the included pump. My only concern is the durability of the straps as my dogs have almost torn off one the straps of the previous ball I purchased.

Westie LOVES this toy
Color: U.S.A, Size: Medium
My pup (Westie) adores this toy. This is actually our second one. The ball itself is resistant but the straps will be obliterated. Would definitely recommend! Totally worth the price!
