Our WW1 British Army 1902/1907 Pattern Service Dress Tunic is a faithful reproduction of the standard field tunic worn by British soldiers throughout the Great War. Introduced in 1902 and slightly modified in 1907, this service dress became the iconic image of the “British Tommy” on the Western Front.
Tailored from heavy khaki wool serge, the tunic features a stand-and-fall collar, pleated breast pockets, lower patch pockets, and reinforced shoulder straps. The 1907 modification standardized pocket flaps and simplified construction while retaining the practical and durable design suited for trench warfare. Finished with brass general service buttons, this tunic represents the regulation soldier’s dress throughout WW1.
