British DPM Field Jacket
This is a British Army field jacket printed in DPM (Disruptive Pattern Material), the woodland camouflage of brown, green, tan and black that British forces wore for decades. It is a cotton outer layer built for carrying kit in the field, with four buttoned cargo pockets, two zipped chest pockets and adjustable cuffs and hem. Collectors, reenactors, hunters and anyone who wants a hard-working outdoor jacket with real military provenance will find a use for it.
Features
- DPM Woodland Camouflage — The British Disruptive Pattern Material print breaks up your outline against foliage and earth.
- Cotton Construction — The cotton shell breathes well and is comfortable for long days outdoors.
- Four Front Cargo Pockets — Two chest and two lower pockets each close with a flap and a large button that is easy to work with cold or gloved hands.
- Twin Zipped Chest Pockets — Vertical zip pockets beside the front closure keep a phone, map or notebook secure and quick to reach.
- Zip Front With Storm Flap — A full-length zip sits behind a buttoned flap that helps block wind.
- Hook-And-Loop Cuffs — Hook-and-loop tabs, the familiar touch-fastener, let you cinch each cuff over gloves or loosen it for airflow.
- Drawcord Hem — A cord with toggles at the hem pulls the jacket in to hold warmth and keep out drafts.
- Genuine British Army Issue — This is original government-issued kit, made to the Army's own specification.
Issued British Army Kit
The jacket was made for and issued to the British Army, so the cut, pocket layout and hardware follow the service's own pattern rather than a commercial maker's design. DPM is one of the most recognized camouflage patterns of the late twentieth century, which is why British field clothing in this print is sought after by collectors and reenactors. The cotton build and practical pocket layout also make it a sensible jacket for hunting, camping and outdoor work.

solidBeen wearing this thing every single day for three weeks now. Fits good for an XL. The woodland DPM pattern is definitely the real deal not some cheap reproduction. Pockets are deep enough for tools and whatever else

ExcellentJacket was an almost brand new condition and actually fit. I'm 5'10 280 lb and the two extra large fit good

fantastic jacketThe jacket was brand new old stock... Never issued as far as I could tell. It did need a good wash. I ordered 2XL and I'm 6-3 250 lbs. The fit was good and roomy. I altered the sleeve lenght a bit to my taste. So sleeves are constructed differently then US coats... The smaller shoulder opening, gives you better movement when you raise your arms above your head and the jacket doesn;t raise up around your waist because of this.... The other side of that coin, its a big snug in the shoulders when your arms are down at your sides, but the arm movement overall for any position is really good... So it may be just a matter getting use to the fit.. Its going to be my winter outdoor work jacket so it get a full test in the sierras. The quality of the sewing and the material is outstanding... The zippered chest pockets take it to the next level. I ordered a DPM shirt too and altered this jacket by replacing the velcro closure with buttons from the shirt (just personal preference). The zipper is left handed which takes a bit to get use too, but the jacket i received is like new so it works best deal around for jacket of this quality!!
