British MTP Windproof Smock

An icon in surplus-wear, this is the British Windproof smock. Now in the ever ubiquitous Multi-Terrain Pattern. Just don’t Crye about the lack of DPM Camouflage. 

The demise of DPM in favor of MTP continues the never ending dominance of Crye’s signature pattern. As much as we hate to admit it, the damn colorway just works. Luckily, the British didn’t just copy Multicam exactly, they gave it the God-Save-the-Queen treatment. It’s just different enough to tickle your autism when trying to pair it with other Multicam gear but similar enough that the average lay person won’t notice the difference.

The MTP Windproof Smock is an excellent example of a quality smock that is basically load bearing. Its large chest pockets allow you to store everything from IFAKs to magazines, MRE’s, and a whole lot more. Add in your preferred belt kit and you're ready to ruck in almost any condition. 

The adjustable waist and hem of the smock let you seal out any wind incursions from below. And with a wire-reinforced adjustable hood you can keep your tactical awareness, while keeping your bussin fr fr no cap hairstyle (I'm sorry for writing this) safe and protected. Especially since the hoods are oversized to fit large, unshapely Bri’ish helmets. If you paid attention in science class, note that these windproof smocks aren’t necessarily rain-resistant, but a quick trip to the local sporting goods store for some rattle can waterproofing can fix that in a jiffy.
