Full Description

This original Czech Army M85 V-neck sweater is genuine unissued military surplus.

Cold War Military Design

Issued during the Late Cold War era, this Czech Army M85 V-neck sweater was designed as a lightweight insulating layer. The Czech military engineered this knitwear to provide warmth without adding bulk under heavy combat jackets. Made from a wool-blend, it offers thermal efficiency and breathability, keeping you warm in the field while preventing overheating during active use.

Functional Ribbed Knit

The sweater features a distinctive vertical ribbing pattern across the body and sleeves, which improves elasticity and allows full freedom of movement. For cold-weather protection, the waist and cuffs are finished with a tighter, pronounced ribbed texture. This snug knit conforms to your wrists and torso, sealing out cold drafts and holding your body heat close to your skin.

Supergrade Surplus Condition

As genuine unissued Czech Army surplus, these jumpers are in Supergrade condition, meaning they have never been worn. The deep V-neck style is highly versatile, making it ideal for layering over collared shirts for everyday wear, or packing into a rucksack for outdoor bushcraft and hiking. Caring for it is simple: wash at 40°C and air dry to maintain its shape.

Add this classic Cold War layer to your outdoor kit or everyday wardrobe.
