White Mess Uniform Information

 

Alternative Sourcing Options: As the White Mess Uniform is a seasonal & optional purchase, we have temporarily discontinued production to prioritize high AGSU demand. In the meantime, we recommend purchasing a jacket through the Navy Exchange and allowing Marlow White to convert it to an Army jacket. Please see below for further instructions.

 

Men's White Mess Uniform Options:

Marlow White's alteration team can convert the Officer USN Dinner Dress White jacket to your Army Officer White Mess jacket. Enlisted White Mess Jackets do not need to be sent into Marlow White for conversion. A local tailor can add the additional button & add the gold soutache sleeve braid which can be purchased here.

Marlow White still has a limited supply of Black Hi-Rise Trousers. If your size is not available, we recommend also purchasing these directly through the NEX and using Marlow White to convert them to US Army uniform trousers.  You should confirm uniform items fit prior to sending it to Marlow White!
       

What to do after ordering your jacket through the NEX:

1. Send your jacket: Mail your white mess jacket to Marlow White Uniforms, Attn: Alterations, 400 Seneca St., Leavenworth, KS 66048. In the package with your jacket, please include your contact information, return shipping address, wear date, and your intent to have your jacket converted to an Army jacket. We recommend you insure your package.

2. Contact Us: Email [email protected] with your tracking information, contact information, return shipping address, the date you need to wear your jacket, your rank, and if you'd like us to add Black Hi-Rise Trousers to your order.

3. Customization: We will convert the USN jacket to an Army White Mess jacket by adding:

  • Army Buttons (we will create a third buttonhole according to Army spec and change the buttons to the Army style)
  • Shoulder Loops
  • Trefoil (General Officers will have the appropriate braid)
  • Gold Bullion Mess Uniform Rank Insignia

4. Pricing: We will contact you prior to starting alterations work to confirm your order total & to gather your payment information. Generally, you can expect to pay around $59.00 plus shipping.

5. Processing Time: You can expect your jacket to ship 10-14 business days upon receipt of payment information.

Women's White Mess Uniform Update:

Unfortunately, the Women's USN Dinner Dress White Jacket is not the same design as the Army Mess Dress. At this time, we do not have any alternative sourcing options available.

 

Marlow White's swords and sabers have ceremonial blades. As such, they are built to strict military regulations to be used in drills, ceremonies, and displays. These blades are of the highest quality but are not sharpened for use as a weapon.
