Spanish Military Trench Coat

[Mr. Scratch]

I'm told this is a Spanish military coat from the 1960s. I can't find any other info. Does anyone know what this coat is called, where one might be available, and how much they usually cost?

El trench coat?

I think even earlier than 1960's perhaps late 40's or 1950's...

Too short for it to be a true trench coat...possibly a Spanish version of the German "windjacke"
which is double breasted wind-breaker jacket, like variants used by German mountain troops (a hunch...not really sure!)

I actually used to own one myself...added some insignia to it...Later sold it to a Russian collector!

It´s called Windjacket, and it´s the 1943 regulation model.

In use up to late 1980´s. The buttons are different and also the style, depending on the years of manufacture.

Here you are a few links with photos and prices from a spanish page:
