Standard Green-Grey woollen uniform

The woollen uniform was worn as normal service dress and was standard issue. It was worn during the invasion of France, in Albania, Greece and Yugoslavia, and on the Russian front. Later arriving troops in Tunisia and some troops in Sicily were also dressed in Green-Grey.

Grey fatigue uniform

Italian troops were also issued with a lightweight cotton fatigue uniform for wearing on the march or for labouring duties. It was of a medium grey colour and seemed to be a common sight on the Russian front in the summer months.

The fatigue uniform was often the only uniform issued to second line troops such as the coastal divisions that formed the bulk the Italian defence of Sicily. The coastal troops often wore the French style Adrian helmet.

Tropical Desert uniform

In the desert the Fucilieri were issued with a light cotton tropical uniform. It was a yellowy tan colour in hue and is often described as Light Khaki. Trousers and Tunics were the same colour, though most troops retained their original Green-Grey puttees. Leather items were brown leather rather than black, though some troops retained their black items. Helmets were painted the same sand colour as the tanks and vehicles, but some soldiers continued to wear green helmets.
