NetherlandsRoyal Netherlands Army = Dutch ArmyThis is the land division of the Dutch Army, founded in 1814.

Its origins date back to the establishment of the Stazellege (the Dutch Army) in 1572, that is, one of the first modern standing forces, and the Dutch Standing Force is considered to be one of the oldest troops in the world.

He participated in the Napoleonic Wars, World War II, Indonesian War of Independence, and the Korean War, and participated in NATO at the forefront of the Cold War in West Germany from the 1950s to the 1990s.

This individual is a piece that was mainly worn as uniforms by the Elite Army Special Forces (KCT) within the Royal Dutch Army, and was only allowed to wear by a limited number of soldiers.

KCT (Korps Commandotroepen) is an elite special forces unit of the Royal Dutch Army, as mentioned above.
This unit is said to have originated in World War II in 1942, under the name "2nd Dutch Unit," and later in 1950.The name KCT" has been officially adopted and continues to this day.

The force is tasked with carrying out any special operations, with its main missions being direct action, special reconnaissance, military support and counterterrorism.

ThatNamed by the Royal Dutch Army because soldiers look like frogs when they are swimming.Introducing the field jacket that uses the entire Frogskin Camouflage.

"Frogskin Camouflage" is considered to be one of the camouflage patterns that began to be used by the US military in 1942.

It is said that when soldiers swim to land on land when they landed in Normandy, they came to be called "frogskin camouflage" because they looked like frogs.
In Japan, it is also known as "duck hunter camouflage."

This camouflage pattern consists of a "jungle camouflage pattern" mainly made up of five green colors printed on one side, and a "beach pattern" mainly made up of three brown colors printed on the other side.

Although this individual is very similar to the frogskin camouflage used by the US military, it is not reversible, but only one side, and the camouflage pattern is slightly different.

NetherlandsKingdom LandFrogskin camouflage, also known as the "Jelly Bean Spot," is also known among some collectors, and is generally composed of dark green, olive green, reddish brown spots on a pale green or tan background.

The camouflage patterns are eccentric, but the details are very simple.

The only thing that stands out is the large flap pockets that are placed on the left and right front sides.

The front is a double-layered structure with a front button fastening.

The front-mounted interior also corresponds to American military items such as the "USMC P-44".A gas flap is also included (this is missing), and it can be seen that not only the camouflage pattern but also each detail is affected in some way.

The gas flaps that come with the US military are originally sewn together, but this one is a button-fitting type, so it can be easily attached and detached.

Another great feature is that it is short, which is rare for military items.
The camouflage pattern has a strong impact, so by making it a shorter length, it gives it a clean overall look.

The length is short, so it would be a good idea to layer it as an inner layer.

Of course, it would be good to enjoy it with vintage items together,Personally, I think this is the perfect item to wear as a formal style, like a tide-up style.

Not only is its rarity,It is a very cool piece when viewed from the perspective of a fashion item, so I hope you will wear it without worry.

Size notation is "50"
I think it corresponds to "L to XL" in Japanese size.

Even when looking at the actual measurements, the size is large, so even people with large figures can wear it without any problems.
It's like a military item, so it would be great to wear it with a large jacket.

There are signs of wear such as dirt, small holes, tears, missing buttons, and missing gas flaps, but there is no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so I think you can still wear it.

Even the many military items are rarely seen in the market, and are of old age.Royal Dutch Army items.
There is also a certain number of enthusiastic fans.As it is the Royal Dutch Army, there is no doubt that this is an archival piece that even collectors will never let go.

This is a perfect piece not only for a wardrobe, but also as a collection item and design source.
This is a masterpiece that is rarely seen both domestically and internationally, so if you're looking for it or like rare items, don't miss this opportunity.
