KEY FEATURES
The Original Greek Army Lizard Camo M65 Field Jacket is a genuine military surplus cold-weather coat.
Proven Cold War Origins
Issued to the Hellenic Armed Forces, this jacket combines the classic American M65 design with Greece's iconic Lizard camouflage pattern. Developed in the 1970s from earlier brushstroke designs, the horizontal green and brown tones blend into varied terrain, offering reliable camouflage for collectors and outdoor users.
All-Weather Adaptability
Built for changing field conditions, the coat features a removable button-in liner for cold days and a zip-concealed hood stored inside the stand-up collar. The heavy poly-cotton twill shell blocks wind while remaining breathable, and a full front zipper with a snap storm flap keeps harsh drafts out.
Practical Storage and Fit
Four front cargo pockets with secure button flaps offer ample space for daily essentials or bushcraft tools, alongside an upper sleeve pocket. Adjustable velcro cuff tabs and dual drawstrings at the waist and hem allow you to cinch the jacket tight against cold wind during hiking or field work.
Gear up with a genuine Hellenic Army field jacket built for cold weather and rugged outdoor use.
This item was used by the Other Army during the Late Cold War (1961–1991) and is in Grade 1 condition. It is in very good condition with plenty of life left. We recommend giving it a wash before wearing.

Grade 1 represents solid, fully functional military surplus that has been deployed or issued but remains in great usable condition with plenty of life left.
- Functionality: 100% field-ready. All main zippers, press studs, drawstrings, and buckles work as intended with no critical faults.
- Fabric & Wear: Structurally sound with light cosmetic wear, minor abrasion, or subtle fading from normal military use and laundering.
- Markings & Personalisation: May feature soldier names, unit numbers, service markings, or light depot stamps written on tags or fabric.
- Repairs: May include neat, professional military-standard stitches or minor reinforcement patches that do not compromise gear integrity.
- Storage & Cleanliness: Gear is serviceable straight out of the box, though a standard initial wash or airing is recommended to clear typical military surplus storage scent and minor handling dust.
This brushstroke pattern features irregular horizontal streaks of dark brown and dark olive green on a light green or tan background, often with disruptive elements or stippling. Derived from French lizard designs, it was developed to provide optimal concealment across Greece's diverse Mediterranean terrains, including rocky hills, woodlands, and arid scrubland.
