Eaglehurst Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Again not particularly noteworthy other than the fact that they seem to be relatively uncommon in larger sizes. I see dozens for sale at 170/96 etc... but very few at 180/112 or larger and in good unissued condition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulbrook Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 Ahh the ones with the self-destructing pockets. Not a great era for clothing quality that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eaglehurst Posted October 12, 2011 Author Share Posted October 12, 2011 I remeber in basic training - doing a night-time recce on a Signals building up on N'York moors. I had the new 94 Pattern but most of the section still had 85 pattern gear. The final part of the recce was the inevitable belly crawl and when we got back to camp early the next morning one of the lads had lost both of the lower pockets off his smock!

paulbrook Posted October 12, 2011 Share Posted October 12, 2011 I love the "keep cool do not overheat" plea on the label. Fat chance of overheating wearing that stuff unless you were somewhere very hot indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
