Eaglehurst Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 (edited) Picked this up recently as part of a job lot. Identical to the standard 68 pattern in every way apart from the NZ zip which is not fully stitched all the way to the bottom of the smock as per normal. The obvious difference is the label - although James Smith manufacture - it is not the standard production label. There is no smock instructions label either. The drawer strings are not the normal lace type but more a thin nylon cord. A prototype smock perhaps?

wdbikemad Posted March 9, 2012 Share Posted March 9, 2012 This just may be a New Zealand issue 68 pattern smock, British made by the usual suppliers but with the odd detail difference (usually the label)... I've never seen the NZ smock, but have seen a pair of British-made 68 pattern DPM trousers for NZ forces.......apart from the label detail (white label) they are identical in every other aspect.....
