Full Description

This is the original M97 Slovakian Camo Field Jacket. A genuine military surplus combat coat.

Velvet Divorce Heritage

Following the 1993 split of Czechoslovakia, Slovakia developed the unique vz. 97 woodland camouflage to equip their forces. This genuine surplus jacket—available in lightly worn Grade 1 condition—carries this post-Cold War history. With the original embroidered Slovak coat of arms on the sleeve, it offers collectors and outdoorsmen a unique piece of military heritage.

Heavyweight Utility and Storage

Known locally as the "Kongo" jacket, this field coat is built for utility. It features an array of secure pockets, including internal and rear compartments, designed to keep vital tools within reach. The heavy-duty 50/50 polyester and cotton blend resists abrasions during rugged bushcraft and camping trips, while the tight weave offers breathability in changing climates.

Adjustable Field Configuration

The functional design includes an adjustable drawstring waist and button cuffs, allowing you to seal out cold drafts or loosen the fit for active hiking. Hook-and-loop chest strips let you mount custom insignias, while the button-down front with a protective flap adds extra durability. It is an ideal outer layer for demanding workwear, paintballing, or tactical training.

Equip yourself with a piece of genuine Slovakian military history for your next outdoor campaign.
