French Army Track Top
This is the blue zip-up track jacket of the Armée de Terre, France's land army, made as a training top for sport and physical exercise. It is a light layer to put on over a T-shirt before a run, at the gym, or on a cool morning. It is genuine French Army issue, so it suits collectors of French military clothing as well as anyone who wants an authentic track top to wear.
Features
- Armée De Terre Crest — The French Army's emblem, with a globe, the blue-white-red tricolor and the words Armée de Terre, is embroidered on the left chest.
- Full-Length Front Zip — A zipper runs from hem to collar, so you can open the jacket fully or close it all the way up.
- Stand-Up Collar — A tall collar rises around the neck when the jacket is zipped to the top.
- White Contrast Piping — A thin white line runs across the chest and shoulders and down each sleeve, giving the jacket its classic track-top look.
- Ribbed Cuffs And Waistband — Stretch-knit bands at the wrists and hem hold the jacket close so it stays put while you move.
- Cotton And Polyester Blend — The fabric mixes cotton for comfort against the skin with polyester for strength and a smooth finish.
- Blue Colorway — A solid mid-blue body and sleeves set off the white piping and the colored crest.
- Genuine French Army Issue — This jacket was made for the French Army itself, not produced as civilian fashion.
Issued French Army Kit
The Armée de Terre crest on the chest marks this as official French Army clothing, which separates it from the many track jackets that only borrow the look. The cut is simple: a zip front, a high collar, ribbed cuffs and hem, and piping laid along the yoke and sleeves. Collectors and reenactors want it for its provenance, and it also works as an everyday training layer.

Coolest track jacketI am a sucker for vintage athletic wear and when I saw an authentic French Army track jacket for 20 bucks I didn't even hesitate. This thing is incredible. The blue with white piping looks so clean and retro like something out of a European sports film from the 80s. The French Army logo on the front is a subtle detail that always gets people asking about it and the story behind it makes it even cooler. The fleece lining is a game changer because most track jackets are just thin windbreaker material but this one actually keeps you warm. The elastic cuffs and waistband give it that classic athletic silhouette and the zippered front makes it easy to throw on and off. I've been wearing this literally everywhere, to the gym on morning runs to the grocery store and even out to dinner with jeans.
Feels premium despite the 20 dollar price tag
