Very nice Rene, i use a pair of modern British windproofs on the bike in winter.
I didn't know that. Maybe that is why they are so scarce now?
Great item Rene
Even today these are much misunderstood and little known in UK.
Thanks for showing.

And 5 mins after these pics were made they were in the ultra-rare 'bird poo' camouflage pattern?
.rene, yes, two broad arrows point to point mean they were officially sold out of service/released from service

in the 70's, it was easy to find such uniforms in France, now it's rare, I had the jacket and the shirt, sold...

Were the French items ex-British surplus or were they French maunfacture in the same pattern?
