Haix Airpower P3
Heroes wear HAIX, all right? These are light, very breathable, very comfortable and waterproof by virtue of being lined with Gore-Tex.
British Gore-Tex gaiters, DPM, surplus
Used DPM camouflaged gaiters. Current issue for the British army. Gaiters are a good accessory for cold weather and moving through wet foliage, because they protect the part that gets wet most easily, but don't wrap anything else in a sweat sack.
BW Gore-Tex trousers, Flecktarn, surplus
Trousers of the current issue German Bundeswehr rainsuit. Very simple and sensible hardshell overtrousers to wear when it's wet and nasty.
Särmä merino wool long sleeve shirt, black
As the weather gets cold and nasty, so do cotton undergarments. The answer is to switch to merino wool. These have a nice, snug fit for best functionality. We had these made in Lithuania just for us.
SealSkinz Walking Thin Mid Socks
Like with any part of clothing, it's only sensible to separate different layers for footwear too. These offer the waterproof, breathable membrane in sock form. In short, with SealSkinz socks you can turn any ol' boot or piss skater into waterproof footwear. Properly made, well tested, tried and true, SealSkinz is a brand you can trust!

French F2 "Bigeard" cap, surplus
The beloved Bigeard, one of historys coolest military headpieces ever made with the two-prong "swallowtail" protecting the neck.
Carinthia Tropen sleeping bag
The perfect summertime sleeping bag, the Tropen is designed for comfort in warm temperatures, it's highly breathable, very lightweight and equipped with a mosquito net! Top of the line military quality for heavy use!
British MVP trousers, DPM, surplus
MVP is the British Army equivalent to Gore-Tex. It has exactly the same qualities: waterproof, but still breathable to a degree, unlike rubber. These are the trousers of the MVP uniform.
Totally unissued modern rain jackets, these are French army surplus in bigger gentlemen's sizes. These present an excellent value for the money - the price of comparable stuff is measured in hundreds of bucks, not tens like these. The cut is properly royal and quality equally solid!
Just a shell, like a rain garment should be, these have no lining whatsoever and are cut large enough to fit over everything else. These have the essentials and a bit beyond; zipper and snap closure, a roomy stow-away hood, two hem pockets and two hidden chest pockets, adjustable hem, cuffs and hood. Armpit zippers for ventilation. These sleeves are Raglan style, so there's no potentially chafing seams. Reinforced elbows.
The fabric is proper waterproof & breathable type, and although we couldn't find Gore-Tex tags, it's essentially the same stuff. The seams are properly taped of course, as these are military grade kit. Wash in 60 degrees Celsius if you have to.
Size info
Sizes simply first in the French size, then by user's recommended height and chest circumference in centimetres. Please note these are cut pretty large and meant to fit over everything else.
Condition
Each jacket looked totally pristine. Our guess is that the French army had these specific sizes more than enough in stock and just let them go.
