San Marco and COMBUSIN camouflage

Beautiful group of Italian Camo,

Thanks for posting..

nice set love the comsubin desert camouflage patterns, really unique

Nice to see some more COMSUBIN/BSM variants. One of my favorites! I'm fortunate enough to have a Peach set. I like to think of it as "orange sherbet", one of best deserts of all time

Steve

Peach camo is very rare (impossible) to find in italy at this time...this uniform was Made from FCM in Prato, only a small Lot was Made, and if it's possible to find one you could pay at least 350 euros for a set...

The "pink" camo, called "salmonata" from "salmon" was Made from a company called "trade company" and others from FCM.

Star and rank are metal

Maybe the stamp says 1975? I've never seen metal star rank on one of these.

Steve

Looks like 1970,

Metal stars are usually worn on walking out & dress uniforms..

Rip....

I've thought that about the shoulder rank too. Didn't they have it pinned to their chest?

Italian  San Marco Regiment Prototype(jungle?) camo uniform

My understanding is it was an experimental type.

I have a picture of this exact uniform. Is this now in your hands? The date on my picture is 12/2010. I have other pictures of the pattern, the earliest date is 8/2010. Which means it is no newer than 8/2010.

Hello
COMBUSIN pattern 2000 , I think
Gilles

Gilles,

Thank you very much for your quick response and opinion!
I learned from other posts that my pants (year of production 2005) belong to the type, in which San Marco camouflage acquired the cut of Vegetato uniform pattern.

Thanks again!
And my task will be searching for appropriate jacket!

By the way, I tried to find "COMBUSIN + pattern 2000" and found that correct word is COMSUBIN...

I also used to say COMBUSIN earlier ...

COMSUBIN is an acronym that stands for "COMando SUBacquei INcursori" that mean "Raiders & Divers Headship"

Hope to be helpful.

Stefano

Thank you Stefano,

   Raiders and Underwater Warfare Command is probably a bit more accurate in American English..

For sure, sorry for my english

Stefano,

No need to be sorry...Your input is appreciated..

Stefano, ripcord, vonstuck!

Thank you guys, for you comments!
By joint correction and checking we all are closer to better understanding and true knowledge!

im assuming its real all tags are different usually i will post pic of actual shirt later it smelled like it was in surplus so i washed it now the tag is faded off but i took a pic of it before that happened condition is good has that lion patch on the left pocket





note. still smells a bit i will be wearing it so the tag fading is not a problem for me
