West African Guinea-Bissau Army Combat Jacket - Jungle Camo

Guinea-Bissau Combat Jacket

This is the field jacket issued by the Guinea-Bissau Army as part of its current operational uniform, printed in a green, brown, black and tan digital jungle pattern. It is a lightweight shirt-jacket built for hot, humid service, with a zip front, four snap pockets and the national flag embroidered on the sleeve. Collectors of African military uniforms, reenactors and anyone who wants a genuine issued jacket rather than a commercial camo shirt will find it a distinctive addition.

Features

• Poly-Cotton Ripstop Shell — The 65% polyester, 35% cotton fabric is woven with a reinforcing grid so a small snag cannot run into a long tear.
• Digital Jungle Camouflage — Pixelated blocks of green, brown, black and tan break up the wearer's outline against dense vegetation.
• Zip Front With Storm Flap — A full-length zipper closes the jacket, and a button-fastened placket covers it to keep out wind and rain.
• Four Bellows Pockets — Two chest and two lower pockets are pleated so they expand to hold bulkier items, and each closes with a snap-down flap.
• Hook-and-Loop Patch Panels — Fabric-faced panels above the left chest pocket and at the center chest take a name tape and rank insignia.
• Embroidered National Flag — The red, yellow and green Guinea-Bissau flag with its black star is stitched onto the upper sleeve.
• Shoulder Epaulets — Buttoned straps on each shoulder carry rank slides or hold a strap in place.
• Adjustable Button Cuffs — Two-position button tabs at each wrist let you snug the sleeves down or loosen them for airflow.

Issue Specification

The jacket follows the Guinea-Bissau Army's own uniform pattern: a notched collar, ripstop poly-cotton shell, zip-and-button front and four-pocket layout, with the flag patch fitted as issued. The polyester content helps the fabric dry faster and hold its shape, and the cotton keeps it breathable in heat. Because it is government-issued kit, every detail matches what the army's soldiers wear, which matters to collectors and reenactors building an accurate West African uniform.
