[~ 50's] British Army Airborne Troops BrushStroke Camouflage Denison Smock Size.3 "SAS"

Payed in 1951, it became the British army "Brush Stroke Camouflage Denison Mock".

It is the arrival of special items.

This first place used in the British army special airborne unit (Special Air Service).

Special Air Service (SAS) is a special unit specializing in infiltration and destruction work of major facilities (communication, transportation, etc.) in the mechanized modern war.

It is easy to associate with the Air Force from the word "Air", but it is actually an Army unit, which was born in anticipation of an airborne entry during World War II.

"Airborne Troops Denison" paid as uniforms worn from the battle uniform during World War II

"Denison Smock ("Denison Mock) was provided to special operational execution agents, parachute regiments, glider pilot regiments, aviation landing squads, aircraft squadrons, commando units, and other federal airborne units.

It was worn on the webbing equipment of an airborne descent soldier, but the main purpose was to prevent the wearer's equipment from being caught during or jumping, so it was worn under the parachute pack and harness. I was.

Speaking of Denison Mock, the biggest feature is the first impact of the first camouflage pattern, which was adopted in the British Airborne Division in 1942, is the first impact that is applied to the whole.

Denison mocks are improved each time due to details and camouflage pattern changes.

As for this individual, it will be a 1951 supplement as described in the tag.
Since it was the first improvement in 1944, it is the first place classified as a so -called "2nd Pattern".

Although there are some individual differences in the camouflage pattern, it is almost the same as the camouflage pattern used in the "1st Pattern" worn during World War II.

It is usually a smock type with pullover specifications, but it was very bad at that time, so it seems that soldiers were remodeling to a full open specification locally.
Since the 1944 type, some full open types have been manufactured.

This individual is a rare individual that remains with the original pullover specification without being remodeled to a full open specification.
Isn't it a nice point for those who are concerned with the original?

It seems that two types of sleeve specifications, "rib type" and "button type", were manufactured simultaneously, and two types of items provided in the same age have been confirmed.
Regarding this individual, it will be the latter button type.

The neck uses a zip -up type like a half zip.
The zip slider uses a "newy's" zip.

Since the lining of angola wool is stuck on the back of the neck, it is rich in functionality like a military jacket.

A total of four large flap pockets placed diagonally on the chest and hem are a great detail.

The hem also comes with a tab to prevent the size and the hem fluttering.

Included to fix it to the bodyThe bevertail on the back is very often cut, but the individual remains beautifully.
Beavartail is a detail aimed at preventing the hem from turning up when a parachute descent.

The fabric is made of thick cottondrill fabric that makes you think it's a denim fabric.
It is a very thick fabric, so if it is a little wind, it will shut out without difficulty.

Inside, not only the size notation tag, but also a stamp with a Broad Arrow peculiar to the British army.You can check it firmly.

The size notation is "3"
I think it corresponds to "M ~ L" in Japanese size.

Even if you look at the actual size, I think that it is a golden size that suits the Japanese body type, so I think that it can be worn by people with a wide range of body.
While there are many large sizes, small size individuals are very rare.

Although there is a feeling of use such as dirt, rubbing, repair marks, it is a very beautiful condition considering the age.
Of course, there is no major damage that has a problem with wearing, so I think it is still possible to wear it.

It is not a product that can be bought if you pay money, but it is not possible to arrive in the future.

I think it is a worthwhile one as a wardrobe but also a collection item design source.

I think that it is a rare individual that is rarely seen in Japan and overseas, so if you like it, do not miss this opportunity.
