Can't think of anywhere you could get an off-the-peg repro of that uniform. If you *really* want it, then prepare to do a lot more research, and pay through the nose for some custom tailoring.

It's an aspect or the War that not many people (myself included) have much - if any - knowledge of. If they have uniforms in the museum, you'll be able to get the best research done possible. A close look at the original item :)

The boots breeches and field gear look russian in origin, but the tunic I can`t recognise, the lower pockets seem too far around the sides? :shock:
