The beautiful British Army Windproof Smock in the highly coveted brushstroke camouflage colourway. Introduced in the later part of the war, these smocks would see extensive use with infantry across Northern Europe, and again in Korea. Many would make their way to the French in Indochine, and they would become a mainstay of British special forces well into the 70s.
Condition:
This is example is in excellent condition with only one or two tiny holes in one sleeve. It's worth noting that it seems to have been modified at some point, with two lines of stitching down the front of the garment, and slight variation to the neck of the hood, but it'd take a trained eye to spot this. The size tag is missing, but a War Department 1944 M stamp is still very visible. Good strong colours throughout. Overall a very wearable piece.
Size:
- Tag is missing but a perfect size 1
- Fits a modern small/medium
- Pit to pit 25"
- Shoulder to shoulder 25"
- Shoulder to cuff 18"
- Collar to hem 26"
