Italian Army San Marco Camo Coveralls - 40" Short
Good used condition. Fully functional and field-ready, with light wear and typical service markings.
Genuine Issue Surplus
KEY FEATURES
These are original Italian Army San Marco camo coveralls, sourced directly from military surplus. Only available in 40" Short.
Elite Naval Heritage
These one-piece suits feature the famous San Marco camouflage pattern, an amphibious print used by the elite San Marco Marine Brigade of the Italian Navy. Evolved from the classic pre-war M1929 Telo Mimetico, this scheme blends earth brown, olive green, and warm sand. Sourced in Supergrade condition, these vintage boilersuits show minimal signs of service.
Heavyweight Utility Construction
Constructed from dense 100% cotton canvas, the suit protects against dirt, grease, and light abrasions during field tasks or workshop use. You get four large buttoned pockets—two chest and two hip—providing ample room for tools without risking snags. An internal drawstring waist allows you to cinch the midsection, ensuring the fabric moves with you.
Tactical Field Sizing
To accommodate heavy service footwear, the legs are cut with elasticated ankle cuffs designed to sit short, letting you tuck them easily into high combat boots. If you plan to wear them with standard shoes, we recommend selecting one size up. The adjustable wrists and full six-button front storm flap keep wind and debris out during outdoor activities or bushcraft work.
Equip yourself with a piece of Italian naval infantry history for your next outdoor project or collection.
This item was used by the Italian Navy 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.
