Alas a repro but still rare. These were made for a few years in very limited numbers and haven't been made for a long time. They used to retail for £195 !
A repro of the first para smock in use by British Airborne Forces and a direct copy of the type used by the Luftwaffe early in the war.
This is basicaly a pair of coveralls with the legs cut off. A long metal zipper. It even has the internal storm cuffs and side access zippers of the German smock. Press studs on the thighs to toghten the legs to stop the wind billowing up the smock. Although with the harness on, it's hard to imagine how the wind would get above the legs straps !
It is made fro the same material as teh Denisons subsequently were made of.
Available for trade.
