This bright green shirt from the Austrian Bundesheer is basically a collared shirt that functions as a soft-shell jacket. An excellent choice when you need a mid-layer shirt that doubles as a light, somewhat windproof, fast-drying outer layer - and wish to pop out while you stroll around town. Get it while you can because there won't be more.
Austrian warm weather shirt
We suspect this was issued to some sort of civilian corps, or maybe they just wanted to be able to quickly locate recruits waddling around the mountainside in a drunken stupor. Because of the material of the fabric and the color, it’s great as a light, eye-catching summer jacket.
- Button-closed front, with big easy to use plastic buttons
- Two roomy breast pockets
- Buttons on the shirt sleeves
- Fabric dries quickly, yet is still durable
- Material is usually 67% polyester, 33% viscose
Size info
The fit proper for a shirt not loose like on a jacket. The sleeves are roomy, though.
These are made in various widths and lengths. The Austrian Bundesheer size is in the brackets with regular numbers for the width and Roman numerals for the length.
The size conversions and recommendations are based on our measuring work, customer feedback, and naturally wearing these ourselves. Don't get hung up on the numbers, though: surplus clothes often have variation.
Pay attention! The numbers are recommended body measurements, not garment measur

Used military surplus
Some are used, and some are almost new. All are in perfectly serviceable condition. Might have well-made repairs or something, but overall these are very nice.
