Description:

The tunic is constructed primarily from red wool, with white piping, black trim with gold ribbon accents, and red and white cloth internal lining. The gold ribbon collar bears a set of "three leaf clover" shamrock emblems, with a finely embroidered wire bullion Warrant Officer Class One insignia on the right sleeve and a set of single "Bath star" pips on the gold trimmed black shoulder boards. An internal label for Kashket's Products (currently Kashket & Partners, a Royal Warrant supplier of dress uniforms) is present inside the right breast, with an added information label above. A white buff leather belt is included, with an Irish Guards belt and the name "CARTHY" applied to the inside with black permanent marker. Established in 1900 as a Foot Guards regiment of the Guards Division, the Irish Guards have battle honors from World War One, World War Two, and the Global War on Terror, and currently have William, Prince of Wales as their honorary Colonel; the Prince was married in a Irish Guard uniform from Kashket & Partners.

Rating Definition:

Very good, with mild wear and handling marks, with a faded band around the midsection consistent with belt wear. The belt remains supple, with mild surface cracks.
