A classic piece of surplus Great Britain. These lovely shirts were issued for a little over a decade and saw use in Iraq and the Gulf War. Made of a light poly-cotton material the shirt provides comfort and flexibility where needed. Officially these are combat jackets, but work just as well as a shirt!
The jacket comes with 2 main chest pockets for storing slightly larger items and then a pen sleeve on the left with a small pocket on the right for whatever you may need. The jacket can be buttoned or zipped shut and if it's a particularly windy day the cuffs can be fastened tighter and collar overturned to provide better insulation.
Desert Disruptive Pattern Material or DDPM, was developed in the mid 1980's and wasn't really mass produced until the First Gulf War when the British found themselves unable to properly clothe their personnel. This particular gear is the final in the series of DDPM.
