So nice and easy to source. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMC 7RU Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 What about an olive M7/M8 Barbour International suit, or is that more MT500? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2691H Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Do you mean an MT350?. For both the MT500 and 350 I had Barbour jacket and trousers over 95 pattern kit with standard infantry boots. I returned the trousers to Barbour to have brasses fitted to stop them skidding down whilst riding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMC 7RU Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 Just thought issue of International suits might have ceased by time of introduction of MT 350 - may be not then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
