Archive Extremely Rare 2001 Genuine USMC Desert Marpat Jacket

This is an early MARPAT (Marine Pattern) Desert Digital Camouflage Combat Jacket, contracted by the U.S. Marine Corps (USMC) in 2001.
Since MARPAT was officially adopted around 2002, this item is a rare early model (1st/2nd lot) manufactured during the transition period to digital camouflage.

This is not the mid-term model commonly seen from 2004 onwards, but an extremely rare 01 contract early lot from the first year of MARPAT adoption, featuring the coveted red lettering tag. We are looking for someone who understands its value as an archival piece.

• There are no major damages such as tears, and it can still be worn robustly.

Size:
• Tag Size: SMALL-REGULAR (Equivalent to Japanese size M)
