Description
*Note* As Grade 2 items, these will have defects which may include: very high worn areas (thinned), repairs, missing buttons, holes or poor seams (see 4th picture for an example). These items also have a large variation in colour or degree of fading - please see the 3rd image. Some ripstop NZDPM shirts have the earlier standard collar and button flap chest pockets, some have the later mandarin style collar with vertical zip pockets.
Yeah, nah, these fullas are a bit munted aye.
For a non kiwi, that basically means these are a bit worse for wear. These shirts are in their twilight years, though a lot of them have light damage as far as our Grade 2 system goes. You might end up with a total score [good one] but these will have some battle damage that limits their function.
A little rough but these are still sweet as bro, it's the New Zealand DPM (Disruptive Pattern Material) shirts in ripstop! Retired in 2013 these are the final iterations before being replaced with the MCU cut and camo. RIP NZDPM.
Our latest batch of shirts are a snapshot of evolution into the ripstop realm. Some have the older cut with standard collar, zip & button front + button down chest/shoulder pockets. In the mix are the later (around 2008), modernised cut featuring a mandarin collar that can be worn up or down, vertical zippered chest pockets and plenty of hook & loop surfaces for patches.
For a small country, we sure did love print and manufacturer variations. Like our other batches of NZ camo, these are a NZDPM rainbow - from the modern darker tones to brighter tropical. Some are a bit faded, full of character. Increasingly harder to find, this is one for the collectors.
