Heavy duty surplus from a bygone era of the French Army. Issued to those just after WW2, jackets like this one often saw use in occupied zones both in Europe, Africa and Indochina, as it was designed to be diverse and practical. It is made of a robust all cotton twill material and has a similar look to the later US M65 jackets. 

The coat includes features like dual chest and waist pockets for ample storage, a drawstring waist for a tailored fit, and adjustable cuffs, all while being in a lovely olive colour. Whether you're after it as a collectible piece for its relation to the conflicts in former colonies, or as a rugged vintage piece, it is a fantastic piece of French tailoring.
