Finding your Size

We recommend measuring your overall height and chest width to find your size. While the Germanic sizing system has information on waist and hip measurements, they are derived from those two measurements and change accordingly across standard, short/stocky, and tall sizes.

There are a lot of sizes to cover all the different body types, so don't settle for one that doesn't quite fit. Instead, check one of the other size types. We recommend starting with the Standard set. If your chest size falls between two sizes, we recommend picking the smaller of the two as the chest widths listed here are the minimum chest width for that size; they cover all widths up to the next size. If you match up your chest on the standard set but your height doesn't match, check the other sets accordingly.

In the end you should be able to find a size that matches both your measurements, but please don't hesitate to contact customer service if you need assistance!

Zoll, short for Bundeszollverwaltung Is the German Federal Customs Service. Unlike the state-by-state police forces, Zoll is a federal institution essentially equivalent to US Border Patrol or ICE.

Founded in West Germany during the early days of the cold war, these are the guys who kick down your door with MP5s and G36s when you've forgotten to pay VAT on that nice little gift you got yourself abroad.

You wouldn't want an import of more than 800 cigarettes to hurt the economy would you?

 

The Jacket

This variant of jacket is the same design and construction as their green counterparts, but these were branded blue and yellow for maritime operations. The yellow lettering is not reflective.

One of the most common pieces of the uniform seen on Zoll officers, these models are similar to field shirts in their overall construction and style, but are meant to be tucked in to pants. Because of this, you can either get your size and wear them tucked in, size up and wear them more like a typical jacket, or size down in height and get a fitted heavy uniform shirt fit. (You'll want to consult our Germanic sizing chart for more info)

 From left to right, our model is wearing sizes 102, 46, and 24. He is 5'10 and weighs 165 lbs (179 cm height, 96 cm chest and 74 cm waist for you non-freedom-lovers)

 

The Boys in Green

The Zoll Uniforms share designer fashion DNA with their Polizei counterparts. They even feature the same reflective lettering. The high quality fit & finish gives these a professional and respectable appearance, because that's what they were made to do. They're the last hurrah of Germany's Iconic law enforcement Greens. 

Color is where the lore of these begins (if you want the long version, read our article about the Polizei Sommorblouson).

German Polizei uniforms during the early cold war varied by state and often municipality as well, and the standardization of said uniforms didn't occur until the 70s, once the economy recovered.

Heinz Oestergaard, a German celebrity fashion designer, was hired to re-design and standardize the police uniforms for the whole country. Förstergrün, or "Forest Green" painted all of Germany's Polizei uniforms at the dawn of the cold war. Slowly, it gained as much recognition as the rest of the world's "boys in blue". It became associated with the division of the country and the struggle against communism on the frontiers of the Iron Curtain.

The Blue from Brussels

The color's association with West Germany's divided, anti-communist history didn't fly with the EU. Shades of blue became the new standardized colors.

To a degree it was logical, the navy blue color is internationally recognized and associated with law enforcement. But Polizei departments would wage a war to keep their beloved greens, until eventually throwing in the towel after going out of their way to keep producing their uniforms in green became too costly to continue.

The Bundeszollverwaltung stuck with their greens until rather recently. In 2012, it was officially announced that the uniforms would switch to match the rest of the EU, with the greens to be phased out completely by 2020. In favor of a more uniform EU, the old uniforms were cast aside.

Amazing customer service

So I originally bought a ZOLL jacket off of ebay but it fit *WAYYYY* too big. So I decided to go out on a limb and ask the nice dudes at kommandostore if they could replace it for me if I sent them the one I had. They trusted me and sent a better fitting one, and I couldn't be happier. Than you very much Kommandostore dudes.

Also it's drippy
