BRITISH ARMY DESERT DPM CAMOU JACKET - 1990’S

PRESENT / CAMOU ON CAMOU

British Army Desert Camouflage DPM Jacket, camou on camou.

Scraps of fabric from prototypes and dead stock, lasered and sewn individually on hood, shoulders and back to recreate the original camouflage effect on which camouflage is based.

Normally we use nature (leaves, branches and land) to camouflage.

Here we used our left over which thus becomes the main interpreter of the design of this jacket.

Padded orange lining inside embroidered with onion stitch, detachable and wearable individually.

The hood is detachable and covered with the same fabric offcuts.

PAST

This item was part of the DPM Combat Uniform developed by the British Army at the beginning of the 1980’s for the ‘Desert Storm’ operation.

Through the years different patterns were created starting from this camouflage, so it is now possible to find it in many color variations.

This style was very appreciated by soldiers, both for the fit and the fabric.

DPM is the acronym for Disruptive Pattern Material and was introduced by the British Army during the 1960’s, now it is one of the most copied patterns.

PACKAGING

Our packaging bag is made of 97% vegetable fibre (beetroot or sugar cane). The only reason this does not reach 100% is because it is manufactured using machines that usually process plastic which may leave small traces behind. The raw material is completely petrol-free and fossil substance-free. We ask you to always be careful not to dispose of it in the environment, but for safety we have added an additive that makes it completely biodegradable within 48 months.

MYAR is committed every day to selecting products that do not pollute the planet.

HANGTAG

MYAR commitment is to bring back to life past used military garments that have been stocked for long time in darkened warehouse, bringing back the light in the present time, for a second life in a civil environment.

The up-cycling process involving MYAR is not only an aesthetic intervention but also a process of historical knowledge

This process of customization is also witnessed by a small white cloth sachet containing scraps of fabrics: a part of the past of this garment, which has been modified from the original to be worn today for the future coming.
