Circa 1960s, Italian Army Alpine Jacket.
A piece that saw service with the mountain infantry units of Italian Army.
The details align closely with items used by the US Army mountain troops in the 1940s, which suggests this was conceived as an interpretation of their design.
The chin strap offers a particular appeal—the collar worn raised carries a certain presence and character.
The contrast-fabric hood is a welcome detail as well.
The sizing runs generous, accommodating larger frames without compromise.
The piece presents in mint condition, with no notable wear or blemishing—a consideration for those seeking examples in pristine state.
