Among the jungle fatigues from the Vietnam War era, the 3rd Model Jungle Fatigue Jacket possesses a charm unique to its transitional period. The size is MEDIUM-REGULAR.

This item is from the 1967 contract, in size MEDIUM-REGULAR. Unlike the ripstop fabric that became standard in the later 4th Model, this jacket is made from smooth, non-ripstop cotton poplin.

While jungle fatigues evolved into the iconic combat uniform of the Vietnam War through successive model changes, the 3rd Model represents a transitional period—streamlining the details of the early models as the design moved toward the later versions. The unique texture of the non-ripstop fabric and the soft fade that develops with wear are charms unique to this era.

Above all, this particular piece boasts an outstanding color fade typical of a well-worn OG-107.

Overall, the fabric has faded from its original green to a whitish hue, and the edges—such as the collar, pockets, placket, and cuffs—show even more pronounced wear. The non-rip poplin has softened and settled into the fabric through years of wear and washing, giving it a wonderful, vintage-like character.

The name tag on the chest and the U.S. ARMY tape have been removed, leaving it in a plain state. With no unnecessary embellishments, this piece allows you to fully appreciate the silhouette of the 3rd Model itself and the natural aging of the fabric.

The size is listed as MEDIUM-REGULAR. The label indicates “CHEST: 37 TO 41 INCHES / HEIGHT: 67 TO 71 INCHES” and lists the stock number “8405-082-5569.”MEDIUM-REGULAR is a very appealing size for actual wear.

The garment shows significant signs of wear, with heavy fading visible throughout. Additionally, there are several brown stains—resembling rust marks—scattered across the back in particular. Taking into account the minor stains and wear marks, this is a piece we highly recommend to those who want to enjoy the authentic atmosphere of a well-worn jungle fatigues jacket rather than those focused on pristine condition.

This 3rd Model has a charm entirely different from pristine pieces—it’s a garment that “was perfected through wear.” From the soft texture unique to non-rip fabric, to the faded OG color, and even the traces of use visible throughout, this piece lets you fully appreciate the authentic feel of actual field wear from the Vietnam War era.


Condition: Significant fading throughout; shows signs of wear from use and washing. Brown stains resembling rust spots are scattered across the garment, primarily on the back.

Please note that since this is a used item, returns are not accepted.
