Fostex Garments has stood for authentic military clothing and tactical gear for over 80 years. What began after the Second World War as a trade in surplus army supplies has grown into one of Europe’s best-known brands for military-inspired fashion and outdoor apparel. From bomber jackets in the classic MA-1 cut through commando pullovers and tactical trousers to patches, dog tags and military accessories – Fostex Garments combines function, durability and genuine military style. At Swiss-Sale.ch you will find a selection of Fostex Garments products for outdoor, leisure and collectors.
The bomber jacket is Fostex Garments’ signature piece. Inspired by flight jackets of the Second World War and the Cold War, Fostex offers a wide range of flight jackets in MA-1, CWU-45/P and deck jacket styles. Every jacket receives a vintage garment wash treatment and features authentic details such as Velcro patches on the chest, ribbed cuffs and hidden interior pockets. Whether as an everyday jacket or for outdoor use – Fostex Garments bomber jackets impress with their fit, warmth and military character.
The story of Fostex Garments begins on 5 May 1945, the day the Netherlands was liberated. The Van Os brothers from the village of Benschop spotted an opportunity in trading surplus military goods: uniforms, motorcycles, radios, compasses and countless other high-quality army items were stored in barns and fields behind their farm. When the original stocks ran out, they began sourcing new equipment directly from manufacturers in Europe, the USA and the Far East. In the early 1980s the Fostex Garments brand was born – renowned for authentic military style at an outstanding price-to-quality ratio.
Fostex Garments is one of Europe’s largest suppliers of military patches and insignia. The range encompasses hundreds of sew-on and hook-and-loop patches – from historic Second World War unit badges and NATO flags to humorous morale patches. Available in various sizes and attachment methods, the patches can be applied to jackets, backpacks and tactical gear. Together with the authentically designed dog tags, they form a comprehensive accessory programme for military fans and collectors.
Alongside jackets and accessories, Fostex Garments offers a broad range of military-inspired everyday clothing. This includes commando pullovers, cargo trousers, T-shirts with military prints, vests and headwear. The materials are selected for durability and wearing comfort – ideal companions for outdoor activities, airsoft, camping and daily wear. The WW2 Series by Fostex also focuses on authentic reproductions of Second World War clothing and equipment – for re-enactment, museums and history enthusiasts.
