An icon in surplus-wear, this is the British DPM Windproof smock. Like the US Military's M81 Woodland camo, British DPM had a very long service history in many military organizations around the world, particularly in countries that were formerly British colonies.
DPM can be traced all the way back to the hand painted Denison smock used by British commandos in the 1940s. Early patterns continued to be used for some field uniforms until it was more widely adopted in 1968. Until 2016, DPM was the standard camo pattern used by the British Armed Forces, and is still the issued pattern in many countries.
The DPM Windproof Smock is an excellent example of quality smock that is basically load bearing. It’s 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. Perfect for any “hiking” you might be doing in the Falklands.
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 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.

Sizing
These smocks are measured in cm using height and chest circumference. The sizing intervals are decently far apart, so you may want to round up or down depending on how you want the shirt to fit (tight like a shirt, or looser like a jacket).
Condition
Smocks are in great condition, with only minor signs of use and no holes, cuts, or tears.

The smock is in very good condition except the the hood brim is a bit worn. All zippers and buttons are in good shape.
Oye m8, you tryna be like capt Price or another one of them blimey blokes?! Get yourself one of these smocks. Great camo, good quality fabric and a copper wire in the brim of the hood for custom face-hole adjustment. Makes me want to buy an mp5 and go werewolf hunting in the Scottish highlands.
Smock arrived in timely fashion and in good shape. Like most surplus it needed a deep clean to get the musty smell out, but wasn't a big issue.
Only had it in the field once so far, but does the job when it's cool outside.
This is a great product. DPM is one of my favorite camos and this smock is an excellent piece of gear.
