The Windproof Smock is perhaps the best bad weather jacket ever made. These are the fresh PCS type, and well used.
The latest issue Windproof Smock, the PCS model has lots of fine new features like hand-warming pockets, armpit ventilation and hidden buttons to prevent snagging. The level of manufacture and zipper quality is not quite what it used to be in the CS95 era, so if you are more down-to-earth when it comes to features, the predecessing model is a better choice.
For those not familiar with the concept of the British Windproof Smock, it's basically a roomy, windproof (!) and water repellent top layer which is meant to take the main punishment in whatever you are doing. After its original introduction in WW2 the WP smock has gone through lots of changes, with the main idea still the same.
Features
Now the new PCS smock has raised the bar another notch with many improvements over the earlier CS95 model:
- Zipper closure with velcro strips to cover it
- A roomy hood with drawcord & wire adjustment
- Ventilation zippers in the armpits
- Four large front bellows pockets with the typical folding mouths to keep your stuff in
- The large Canadian type buttons are hidden under the flaps
- Behind the hem pockets you'll find fleece-lined handwarmer pockets
- A zippered mesh-lined pocket on both sides of the chest
- Sleeve pockets with velcro velcro bases for patches & insignia
- Drawcord tightening in the waist and hem, velcro adjustment on the sleeve cuffs
material and care
Made of 50/50% polycotton. Wash in 60 degrees Celsius (140 F). The fabric is naturally windproof and has some water repellent treatment, but this certainly is not a rain coat. The labels say you can rejuvenate the treatment simply by ironing the parka.
Size info
We have listed user's recommended measurements: first up is user height, then chest circumference. If you fall between sizes, pick the smaller one, as the cut is very generous.
Condition
In used but serviceable condition, with the usual signs of wear like faded fabric, maybe a stain somewhere, a missing cord here or there, removed hood wire etc. In other words do not expect a pristine smock, because you'll likely get a properly worn one.
