The long lived M2008 camo was iterated on quite a bit over Turkey's history, and in the midst of a few interesting political changes in their country the Gendarmerie & a few others got a decidedly desert texture of M2008 "nano" camouflage.
If you're looking for a unique combat shirt in a camo you can't just buy from Crye, it's great kit and a great fit no matter which physical (or digital) crusade happens by the time it enters your collection.
The design prioritizes function: a button-front closure, two chest pockets with button flaps, and two sleeve pockets for extra storage. Hook-and-loop cuffs and shoulder epaulettes allow customization, while the relaxed fit accommodates layering. Our surplus stock may show minor wear (haunting memories of Gallipoli).
