Do you have more size or measurement information?

Oops! How do I cancel my bid?
To cancel your bid BEFORE the auction has ended, please visit eBay's Bid Retraction page.
To cancel your bid AFTER the auction/Buy It Now has ended you will need to contact Uncle Sams. Since eBay charges us fees for every item we list, we must contact eBay for reimbursement of those fees when an item is not paid for. The eBay "unpaid item" notification can negatively impact your account with eBay so we do allow customers to reimburse us directly for our listing fees (approximately $5 per item), in which case we will NOT contact eBay.
Please note that Uncle Sam's Army Navy Outfitters expects ALL customers to complete checkout and pay for any items they purchase on eBay. Thank you for your cooperation.
