VINTAGE / 80's Bergian army M-88 FIELD JACKET

A Belgian military field jacket produced in the 1980s.

Although it is used, it is in very good condition with no damage whatsoever.
In recent years, these models have become difficult to obtain.
The excellent condition and golden size make this a vintage item that you can wear with complete confidence, and as for the design, it is based on military wear that was actually used, so it features many practical fine details.

There are two flap pockets on the chest and the inner left chest pocket has a pen holder.
I think many military and workwear items have a pen holder like this on the left pocket,
Actually, there is a reason why it is on the left.
This is because most people are right-handed, so the details are designed with right-handed people in mind (as an aside).
In addition, the back and the upper front of the garment are made of double fabric for warmth and durability.
The silhouette can be adjusted by tightening the waist drawstring.
There are slits on the sides for ventilation.
There are storage pockets on both sides of the back hem, similar to game pockets, making this a highly practical piece.

Although the design is reminiscent of the US military's M65, the stand collar and clean pattern make it easy to coordinate with other fashion items, and the medium length means it doesn't feel too heavy.

I think that a cotton flight jacket that can be worn all year round is a perfect fit for the Japanese climate.

I think it's easier to wear this type of item when mixed with modern, updated brands rather than coordinating it with a classic style.
For example, I recommend wearing it over a pair of wool wide trousers, leather shoes, and a cashmere sweater, or over a tailored jacket.
