Combat Soldier 95 Trial Clothing

The DPM "Soldier 95" combat outfit of smock, trousers, goretex smock liner and trousers, lightweight shirt and fleece entered development and trial in the early 1990's.....Soldier Magazine of April 19th 1993 carried the stuff on the front cover plus an article inside.......

 

I have examples of the lightweight jacket/shirt, trousers, plus a "working pattern" smock and hood.......all items are labelled "CS 95 User Trial" and also carry a red colour SCRDE label.........

 

These trial items vary in detail from the production garments made from 1995-96 onwards......in particular, the lightweight shirt has sewn-on buttons whereas the production type used the tape-affixed variety, and the field jacket has an exposed front zip and concealed hood not seen on production versions.....

 

Anybody got examples of this red-labelled gear in their collections ?
