French Army Mosquito Head Net

French Issue Insect Net

This is a mosquito head net issued by the French Army. It keeps biting insects off your face and neck when repellent wears thin or isn't allowed. Two metal hoops hold the fine mesh away from your skin, so mosquitoes can't bite through it, and a cinch at the base closes it around your collar. Hunters, anglers, campers and anyone working in swampy or wooded ground will get use from it, and collectors of French military kit will want it for the provenance.

Features

• Genuine French Army Issue — This net was made for and issued by the French military, not produced for the commercial outdoor market.
• Dual Internal Metal Hoops — Two sewn-in wire rings hold the net in a rigid dome, so the mesh sits clear of your nose, cheeks and ears.
• 12-Inch Dome Diameter — The roughly 12 in (30 cm) diameter gives your head room, and the hoops let you wear the net over a helmet or brimmed hat.
• Approximately 18 Inches Long — At about 18 in (46 cm) overall, the net drops past the chin to cover the whole face and neck.
• Fine Insect Mesh — The tight weave stops mosquitoes and other small biting insects and is open enough to see through clearly.
• Cinch Closure at the Base — The gathered bottom edge draws in around your neck and collar so insects can't crawl up underneath.
• OD Green Color — The net is olive drab, the muted military green that blends into foliage and matches most field kit.
• Single-Layer Construction — It's one layer of netting with no poles or frame beyond the hoops, so it packs small and weighs very little.

Built to Army Spec

The French Army issued this head net to troops working in insect-heavy terrain. Fine OD green mesh is sewn around two metal hoops that keep its dome shape on your head. The design is simple: put it on over a cap, hat or helmet, pull the base in at the collar, and the net stays put while you move. You're getting authentic issued gear, built for military use.
