Wonderful vintage surplus from the Swedish Army. First introduced in the late 1950's, these jackets stood the test of time and have become a beloved surplus piece. Previously these were a general issue item which is a variant of the M59 Field Jacket, which offered slightly more storage options. This jacket however still became incredibly popular, even to this day.

The coat is made from 100% cotton material meaning it's comfortable, manoeuvrable and easy to clean. The front is closed by several engraved buttons which vary from being a metal material to a durable plastic on later models. There are also 2 large hip pockets and a handy internal chest pocket. Surprisingly unlike the field jacket, this one has adjustable wrist cuffs. It is quite a simple design but certainly all you need in a general purpose coat! 

If you're looking for more storage space we also stock the field jacket, with and without collar tabs!
