Reformed French Army F2 jacket

The reformed F2 jacket

This reformed F2 jacket is an original item from French army stocks. Available in Central European camouflage (CCE) or olive color, it is sold second-hand, with normal signs of use (traces of wear, minor repairs possible), but remains in good overall condition and perfectly functional. Made from robust fabric, it is designed to withstand the harshest conditions. It features two chest pockets with flaps, a stand-up collar and adjustable cuffs. This model, in use for decades, is appreciated for its comfort, practical fit and durability. Each jacket is unique, with its own patina reflecting its history. It's an excellent choice for surplus enthusiasts, re-enactors, airsoft or outdoor activities on a budget, without compromising on quality.

The F2 jacket in French army history

Introduced in the 1990s, the F2 jacket equipped French soldiers for over 25 years. It succeeded the F1 jacket with a number of practical improvements, including better-positioned pockets, a more functional cut and reinforced fabric. Worn during overseas operations in Kosovo, Afghanistan and Africa, it has become an icon of the French uniform. The CCE camouflage is immediately recognizable, while the olive version is reminiscent of training and service uniforms. Reformed jackets sold today have often seen the field, giving them a special charm: natural wear, original markings, traces of the past. They bear witness to the recent history of the French army, while remaining perfectly useful and robust. Acquiring a second-hand F2 jacket also means owning a piece of military heritage still ready for service.
