Nice comparison of DPM, one of my favourite patterns.😊 The green liner in the Dutch jacket is a goretex layer. There is also a pile winter liner. Both can be used at the same time. This jacket exists also in plain green (civilian army personel) and in a Dutch version of multicam (used by the Dutch Royal Marines)

Canada has it's own distinguishable DPM as well! Theirs multiple variants around the world almost like M81 woodland that way.

There is a lot of colour variation in Brit DPM

I prefer the Dutch version. The early 1960 DPM was too light and stood out like a sore thumb under Soviet Night Vision. The Dutch pattern was much better. Those pop studs work for their wages too !! ..and the Dutch had a waterproof liner under the jacket.. whereas the British 'Crisp Packet' waterproof was rustling ..well like a packet of crisps !! ..can you hear me out there yet ?? lol ..even in the heavy rain !! KL stands for 'Koninklijke Landmacht' ..or in our version 'The Royal Dutch Army'

I definitely agree the Dutch build quality is superior. On the camo note, I think the British looks better but the Dutch is probably more effective due to the color scheme being more natural and earth like.

I think that each military may, just possibly, have designed a camo pattern to suit their enviromement. Simples!

Not a true comparison, there are numerous colour changes in British DPM jackets, to show one jacket is not a true sample. Soz man.

British camo is better for me and overall a better uniform.

The Dutch stuff is much better quality and design.The British jacket shown is the type I was issued in training and are of appalling quality.No matter how much starch or how long you ironed them you always looked like you’d got dressed in the dark.

Just like the early L85s. Shoddy materials and construction. Six months and both are in bits.

Not true. I am American and I can tell you the British Smock is an overly engineered field jacket. In addition to its robust construction the British DPM smock is made from a special but very expensive textile called Modal. The dyes don't fade and the color resolution and brilliance is second to none.

@@1malikalik The new stuff is good. I meant the kit that was issued in the late eighties/ early nineties.I was seriously poor quality and very badly designed.No one and I mean no one, regardless of body shape looked good in it.On a good day you looked like you’d been fired out of a cannon through a surplus store.
