Recent surplus that saw issue right up until 2010. Designed to be used by most branches of the British army, these smocks are wonderfully versatile. They're entirely made of gaberdine cotton meaning they're windproof, which is great for harsher climates.
Being practical, the coat offers a selection of pockets all with great storage sizes. The torso has several and even the left sleeve has a handy velcro pocket. The hood can easily be rolled back to insulate the neck in dry weather.
The smocks come in the S95 version of DPM camouflage, which happens to be the last variant on the DPM camo. DPM lasted 5 decades and went through many alterations. Eventually woodland DPM and other colourways made their way into the armies of over 40 countries, making it the camouflage.
