During the Vietnam War, the "locally made" culture spread throughout Asia along with the presence of the U.S. military. This piece is based on the ERDL leaf camouflage, a symbol of this culture. It is not a government-issued item, but a rare jacket at the crossroads of field and local culture, presumed to have been privately procured for US military personnel in Thailand, Okinawa, Taiwan, etc. at the time.

As you can see at a glance, the camouflage pattern is in the vein of the U.S. Army's ERDL leaf, and from its small leaf pattern and brown-based color scheme, it was probably manufactured in the late 1960s to mid-1970s. There are no clear details such as tags, which is why it is an "unknown" piece, but it is one that gives a strong sense of the background of the time and the individuality of the user.

The lining shows signs of wear and staining, but these are also traces of its history. The worn-in texture adds to the reality and depth of this jacket. The free pattern and construction was born from the fact that it is not a military-issued item. It is a vintage item that has an outstanding fashionable presence, and in today's world, it is a unique and distinctive item. The charm of locally made products was born to meet the needs and individuality of soldiers in the extreme environment of a war zone. Please enjoy its originality as a collection or real clothes. Please note that this is a used item and cannot be returned. Please understand.
