It would come in handy keeping the chill off when I was doing a spot of light gardening.....

Forget it.
There are no known surving uniform items or insignia from the British Free Corps anyway*), but this one is not even a good recreation of a BFC tunic.
(The shoulder boards are army rather than SS, the Union Flag sleeve shield has an incorrect shape, the collar patches should be unpiped for an enlisted man, the left collar patch is missing the rank Litzen, the Three Lions on the right collar patch are too small, the Sturmmann chevron is too far below the sleeve eagle, no BFC member was awarded any of the badges and decorations placed on this field blouse etc.)
*) Although unsubstantiated claims and rumors about pieces in private collections surface quite regularly.

One-Looker Reproduction...
cheers, Glenn

The whole thing looks like a repro. It appears to be the type I saw one year at Fort Indiantown Gap in PA. NH
-
If I imagined the worst reproduction SS uniform I do not think it would be as bad as this one which is not even a remedial fake nor even close to clown costuming.

anyone who were British and in this mob destroyed their uniforms as soon as the could,I spoke to one of them back in the 60s and that's what he told me.
