Full Description

This original Belgian Army M88 field jacket is genuine military surplus built for heavy-duty wear.

Cold War Military Heritage

Issued to NATO forces during the late Cold War, the Belgian Army M88 field jacket was introduced in 1988 as a streamlined replacement for the M64. It served as the primary combat layer for the infantry until 1999. Unlike modern camo, this clean olive green shell offers a classic style that blends naturally into both woodland and everyday urban environments.

Built for Rugged Durability

This jacket is made from thick, hard-wearing 100% cotton canvas that resists wind and abrasions. To block out drafts, it features a heavy-duty metal zip secured by a robust, button-fastened wind flap. The underarm ventilation holes prevent overheating during strenuous tasks, making it a reliable choice for demanding bushcraft and outdoor work.

Practical Utility and Storage

The jacket boasts four front pockets, including angled chest pockets designed for quick access to gear while wearing a harness. On the lower back, a large double-entry poacher pocket provides storage for larger, soft items like maps or dry tinder. For sudden weather changes, a lightweight cotton hood folds away neatly between the outer shell and lining.

Adjustable Fit and Comfort

An internal drawstring waist and elasticated bottom hem allow you to trap body heat and customize the fit. Padded, reinforced elbows offer extra protection when crawling or kneeling on rough ground. The left shoulder features a sewn-on Belgian flag patch, providing a touch of vintage military style to this durable piece of surplus.

Prepare for your next bushcraft trip with this robust Belgian military classic.
