This Swiss army M70 jacket was the pinnacle of quality and versatility for it's time. Issued from 1957 to 1983, this jacket was designed with a huge amount of storage, it's essentially a load bearing system on a jacket! All in iconic TAZ 57 (Alpenflage).
Packed with pockets and pouches to minimize the need of cumbersome packs and bags. Magazine and grenade pouches sit on the chest, while larger pockets are placed around the waist area, perfect for gear and equipment. The M70 is loaded with handy features that made soldiers lives easier. A metal clip placed on the chest was used to carry helmets when not in use. Interior pockets contained weapon cleaning kits, saving storage space. Constructed from a heavy-weight cotton fabric, we estimate it to be around 300gsm. If you're a paintballer/airsofter, hunter or the like, you'll love this top quality jacket.
