Current issue modern British surplus which is absolutely beautiful. The FAD series of ceremonial dress truly keeps with the timeless style often associated with parade and official duty wear. While the No. 2 dress uniform is slightly more focused on utility and field use than say No. 1 dress, it still commands a proper and dutiful aura. All FAD jackets are made to the highest quality, entirely out of pure wool with a sateen type lining, once soldiers have finished their basic training.
The jacket comes with 7 pockets in total, 2 which can be fastened shut on the chest, 2 larger flap hip pockets and then 3 internal pockets for whatever bits and pieces you may have. There are also shoulder epaulettes to fastened ceremonial sashes and or affix rank pips. Belt loops are also included, which help to keep well positioned some of the beautifully vibrant regimental stable belts when worn on parade. A fantastic jacket all around which builds nicely on the older variations of British military dress uniforms.
