Fashionable interpretations of Army Surplus clothing can be found in many of the high street shops but if you want to be a little more inventive or perhaps want something more authentic, why not seek out an original piece. Vintage Military surplus, items can be found in militaria shops and even on market stalls but more often than not, these are functional work items and may not be exactly what you were looking for.

Some items of course cross over the functional fashionable divide such as the fish tail parka. Although used by the American army, this particular parka has gained iconic status largely due to the Mod scooter scene that adopted it in the 1960�s and is still worn today. Other items that have reached cult status include both the German Army Parka and the French F2 Field Jacket.

The German army parka for instance has a timeless look and will withstand the elements due to it being standard military issue. This ensures that you can stay warm while still looking good. The French F2 jacket on the other hand offers a slim, fitted look that is up to the minute and has pockets galore to ensure you have somewhere for your keys and phone. On top of this, vintage military items often have a �lived in� feel to them, which is of course fashionable at the present time.
