Spanish Legion Field Shirt

Spanish Legion Shirt

This is the long-sleeve field shirt of the Spanish Legion (La Legión), the Spanish Army's elite infantry force, known for marching with collars worn open at the neck. It is cut as a working uniform shirt in a sage green cotton-polyester blend, and it suits collectors of Spanish militaria, reenactors building a Legion impression, and anyone who wants a durable, plain-colored field shirt with genuine army provenance.

Features

• Genuine Spanish Army Issue — Made for and issued by the Spanish Army, so you get the original article rather than a commercial copy.
• Cotton-Polyester Blend — The cotton keeps the fabric breathable against the skin, while the polyester adds strength and helps the shirt hold its shape through repeated washing.
• Open Spread Collar — The wide, flat collar lies open at the throat, matching how the Legion traditionally wears its shirts.
• Two Flapped Chest Pockets — Large patch pockets with covering flaps on each side of the chest hold a notebook, map or phone and keep the contents from falling out.
• Buttoned Shoulder Straps — Epaulettes, the fabric tabs across each shoulder, fasten with a button and are where rank slides and unit insignia go.
• Concealed Button Front — A fly placket hides the buttons behind a strip of fabric for a clean front that has nothing to snag on gear straps.
• Buttoned Cuffs — Tab-fastened cuffs close snugly at the wrist or undo easily so you can roll the sleeves up the way legionnaires do on parade.
• Sage Green Color — The pale green shade is the Legion's own uniform color, different from the darker olive drab of most armies.

Worn By La Legión

On a serving legionnaire, this shirt carries the Legion emblem embroidered on the shoulder straps: a crowned crest over a crossed halberd, arquebus and crossbow. A Spanish flag patch sits on the upper sleeve. The shirt pairs with matching sage green trousers and the Legion's distinctive side cap for a complete parade or field impression.
