    Been offered this smock it's pretty faded and used but I've been told it is a genuine SAS smock from somebody who was in the SAS. Trying to get more pics but here's the label:

    It's not rip stop and is like the old 80's style windproof smocks with old style buttons.

    I agree mate, all the MOD guard dog handlers wear them at work, probably just pre rip-stop issue

    Also you say 70s-taking it by that you mean 1970s-if so then no idea about the smock type itself but the label is from a modern item and definitely NOT 70s.
