Our WW1 Australian/New Zealand Army AIF 1907 Pattern Tunic (Reproduction) faithfully captures the 1907 Pattern Australian Imperial Force (AIF) service tunic, the standard issue at the outbreak of the First World War. Based closely on the British 1902 Pattern Service Dress, it was modified to meet Australian needs and became the hallmark of the ANZAC soldier’s uniform during the Gallipoli and Western Front campaigns.
Crafted from heavy khaki-drab wool serge, the tunic features four large external patch pockets with pointed flaps, a stand-and-fall collar, and a five-button front. Reinforced seams and durable stitching ensured its ruggedness in the field, while the khaki-drab tone provided camouflage across varied environments.
This tunic was worn by Australian infantry and mounted units alike, often paired with breeches, puttees, and the iconic slouch hat. Our reproduction maintains strict attention to historical accuracy, making it suitable for reenactments, museum displays, and collectors.
