As an ex-British Army infantryman myself, I take my kit very seriously. My soldiering days are over, but I still do lots of outdoor activity, such as walking, cycling, hill walking, etc. This is a standard British army MTP jacket - the short version, so this just comes to the waist. (I wish they were as good as this 30 years ago!) and useful features, vent pockets, storm flap, sleeve pockets, and a draw-cord hem. There is a zip and Velcro storm flap and adjustable cuffs. It’s quite light, It's not designed to be warm but it's waterproof and windproof. For a civvy, it might be a bit 'military' in appearance for going to the supermarket (!) but for serious outdoor use, the DPM is fine and it has many rugged and useful features. The one I had received was used, but in particularly good condition and excellent value.

Bought two of the winter versions as they did not have desired sizes in stock ( probably due to popularity) of the ones shown. I can honestly say the quality of the kit is top notch, basically out of the tin fresh, (grade 1 type) I had problems working out my correct size but customer service was great, returns and refunds quick and correct sizes re-sent. 5*

Excellent piece of kit. I had to look hard to find the small stain that classed it as ‘DISTRESSED’ as it blends in with the camo pattern. Otherwise it seems to have been unissued! Very pleased with my purchase.
