Identification of WINDPROOF Trousers

[20199]

Hi, I recently acquired a pair of DPM windproof trousers and was just wondering if anyone could shed a little light on them? They are 95 pattern ripstop windproofs, so I would assume they’re a trial pair? The label states TROUSERS, COMBAT WINDPROOF, WOODLAND DP and they feature the Velcro side pockets and cuffs. Any help would be appreciated.
Cheers

Did the advert for them say ‘Para/Cdo/Cadet/SAS?

They’re gen.

May I be the first to venture the opinion that what you have purchased are TROUSERS, COMBAT WINDPROOF, WOODLAND DP and they feature the Velcro side pockets and cuffs.

I would also offer the opinion that you are odd, albeit I probably won't be the first to do so.

If they have a skid mark, egg banjo stain and old mars bar wrapper in the pocket their mine.

Velcro on the cuffs of trousers? Hems, and the (desert DPM) pairs I have have ties on the hems.

Good one...

And they aren't windproof. I once cleared a 24 x 18 tent after a night on the CBS and Curry.....

Do you need them to keep wind out or stop it escaping?

We knead to no.

I was once issued MTP windproof trousers for operation certain death. Slightly heavier and stiffer so presumably tighter weave than normal green pyjamas. Never wore them but I suppose the thought was there to complement a smock.

Advertise as SAS issue and enjoy the beer tokens.

You are taking this seriously.

Desist, or be mocked, mercilessly.

Sounds similar to the issue windproof trouser I had for the Arctic.

And on that bombshell...

I reckon it’s time to ask the OP if this thread is proceeding as expected...

They were produced in a factory in Wolverhampton on the 1 June 12012,
the were cut out by a bloke named Alf and stitched together by his best mate Bert,
Packaged by a bird called Betty, HTH

If I'm honest, I think they are over-trousers you wear over normal combats, and thus never to be worn in anger.

That wasn't wind. It was what trickled down your leg.
