Swedish M90 field jacket, surplus

Unissued Swedish camouflage jackets - these came to us totally factory new. If not exactly a collectible item (yet!), here's proper good stuff for a price that does not reflect the quality at all. This is the L "Lightweight" model, originally designed for wear in warm climates.

Sold out! The surplus warehouse has been sucked dry, when these few that we have left are sold we won't be getting any restocks.

• Button-up front with a small strip of velcro being the lowest button. This means it will open if subjected to pressure, which is a good thing on a garment meant for field use.
• Reinforcements on the elbows.
• Velcro adjusment on the cuffs.
• Chest pockets with velcro closure, with velcro tab for name tag & NATO rank tab.
• Velcro on the right sleeve for national insignia etc.

Made of a mix of polyester and cotton, wash in 60 degrees celsius. The fabric is extremely high quality and beats, for example, the Finnish army current issue kit anyday.

Size info

Sizes in the Swedish system: recommended user's height in centimetres and weight in kilograms. A system based on weight works here, as it's a loose fitting garment anyway. Our model here is size 175 / 75 kg when translated to Swedish, wearing size 180 / 75 kg (or 175-185 cm / 70-80 kg) uniform.

Unissued factory surplus

Each and every piece is in good as new condition. We really have no idea why the Swedish army let go of these. The large "Three Crowns" tags have been removed from these (you can still see the remains of stitches) and a simpler size tag added. Also the little Swedish flag and a piece of velcro has been removed from the left sleeve.
