FT.Monmouth1943 Posted May 8, 2017 Share #1 Posted May 8, 2017 I recently picked up what appears to be a set of Vietnamese copied French TAP 56 Lizard pattern jacket and pants. The zippers are all YKK with the exception of one SOK zipper. The jacket is in mint shape and the colors on the pants are too, but it appears to have taken some damage wherever it was stored over the years. I'll probably take some photos of the fatigues in the natural light tomorrow because these photos do not do the set justice. - Jakob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FT.Monmouth1943 Posted May 13, 2017 Author Share #7 Posted May 13, 2017 Thanks! Based on the pattern differences, fabric, and the Asian zippers I believe it is a Vietnamese made example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
