Plastic Rank Slides for Carabinieri Luogotenente OP Suit

Product overview

Plastic alamari (rank insignia) designed for the Tuta OP (public order operational suit) used by Luogotenente of the Arma dei Carabinieri. These are removable, Velcro®-mounted collar insignia made for duty use, police operations and tactical environments.

Definition: Alamari are removable plastic rank patches worn on the collar of the Tuta OP to show rank and unit. They are intended for serving Carabinieri of the Luogotenente rank and for authorised collectors.

Main features

Compact, lightweight and durable rank insignia made to match the OP uniform’s colours and mounting system.

• Material: flexible plastic gallone with a woven-effect finish and plasticized rear for wear resistance.
• Decoration: stylized fringe and a smooth five-point star in relief; silver metallic appearance on the gallone and uniform silver on fringe and star.
• Base and edging: bright carmine red wool-cloth support with a red plastic perimeter border (~2.5 mm).
• Fixing system: Velcro® hook tape applied to the entire rear surface for quick attachment and removal.
• Dimensions: gallone 3.1 x 13.2 cm; finished alamaro (including border) 2.7 x 5.5 cm. Measurements match OP uniform fittings.

How to use / When it’s useful

Quick answer: attach the alamari to the prepared Velcro® panels on the Tuta OP collar—hook side on the alamaro, loop side sewn on the collar. The system allows rapid, stable and removable application for shifts and uniform changes.

In most cases, the position and use follow the internal regulations of the Arma dei Carabinieri to ensure uniformity and correct identification. These alamari are designed exclusively for Luogotenente on OP uniforms but will fit collars equipped with the matching Velcro® loop.

Care and notes

Simple care keeps the alamari functional and recognisable; observe sale and use restrictions.

• Wipe clean with a damp cloth; avoid strong solvents and abrasive cleaners.
• Do not expose to high heat or prolonged direct sunlight to preserve colour and plastic coating.
• Store flat to protect the shape and Velcro® surface when not in use.
• Sale and purchase require identity verification for serving personnel or an authorised collector licence (prefectural licence ex art. 28 TULPS). Registration and document check are needed before dispatch.
