Modern made surplus which is still issued throughout the British Army. Designed as a base layer shirt or as a lightweight jacket around the base, the shirt features adjustable cuffs and 2 well sized chest pockets. It comes entirely in British MTP camouflage and is made from a comfortable and easy to wash poly-cotton blend.

This particular shirt has quite a history given the numerous patches. To begin with it belonged to a gentleman who served in the 7th Armoured Brigade, a division better known as the "Desert Rats" which has nearly a century of history, but more likely with this modern piece would've served in Afghanistan, likely Kabul, Kandahar etc. There is also a parachutist qualification patch and the regimental recognition flash of the Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers or simply REME. Quite an interesting mix that is for sure!

The camouflage pattern is the British take on the American Crye Multicam camouflage, a pattern which is quickly becoming a standard pattern across much of the NATO aligned nations. The British variant blends the shapes and patterns from the old DPM camouflage but combines it with the effective concealing colours from Multicam. Great for outdoor wear or of course airsoft as these jackets are quickly becoming related to.
