Genuine Military issue

Circa. 1950s, these striking camo suits were originally issued to the Italian Army's Folgore (Lightning) Brigade. One of three light infantry brigades of the Italian Army specializing in parachute operations.

One of Italy’s most elite military units, with a distinguished history dating back to World War II, the Folgore Brigade was originally formed in 1941 as the 185th Paratroopers Division. The unit earned a legendary reputation during the Second Battle of El Alamein in 1942, where it fought against overwhelming British forces in North Africa. After the war, the brigade was disbanded but later reconstituted as part of the Italian Army’s effort to modernize and restructure during the Cold War.
