British DPM Field Shirt

This British DPM Field Shirt stands as an iconic emblem of surplus-wear. Much like the M85 Woodland camo of the US Military, British DPM boasts a rich history of service in numerous global military organizations, particularly those once under British colonial influence.

The origins of DPM can be traced back to the Denison smock worn by British commandos in the 1940s. Early iterations persisted in some field uniforms until its broader adoption in 1968. Remarkably, DPM remained the standard camo pattern for the British Armed Forces until 2016 and continues to see use in certain countries to this day.

The mechanical design of the field shirt itself has a storied history, with only minimal adjustments made over the years, a testament to the principle of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it." It exemplifies the essence of tradition like few others.
