There was technicaly 3(even 4) types of the jungle jacket,
1). Exposed buttons with side adjusters and eppulettes in a poplin fabric
2). Now the button are covered however the eputlettes and side adjusters are kept in poplin
3). Covered buttons, side adjusters and epulettes are removed in a poplin fabric
4). Same as above but in ripstop poplin

Then it moved to ERDL camoflage and then the RDF type jackets were used and then the BDUs ect, ect...

I have 6 of the 1969 jungle jackets all large size, got them all in mint condition. I purchased them in the early 2000, 40$ a piece. Two of them are in mint condition. Those would go for well over 100$ now
