“Its cheap, comfortable, has lots of pockets (6) and seems to be water resistant. If you want waterproof maybe carry a poncho or add some waterproofing with a beanie or boonie.”
“The carriage capacity is great, 6 large pockets hold everything you need on a day hike or long walk.
Great, durable outer layer with the looseness to have any amount of layers you may need underneath depending on the weather.”
“Good hard wearing outer. Heaps of pockets, love the zip up breast pockets. Like everything I've received from A&O, "used" is "like new". Roomy enough for a couple of under layers, and stands up against the typical Taranaki southerly.”
“Great condition, very versatile piece of clothing. Can wear it casually when the weathers a bit cool, wear it if you heading to the diary to grab a couple of things that you can put in its pockets, or outdoors. A must have.”
“Genuine pattern 94 smock, predecessor to CS95. Well made and in fantastic condition, all buttons (incl spares) in place and quality zippers. Just gave it a Nikwax tech wash and cotton proof to revitalise it and good to go.”
“I used to have the British combat smock back in the 80s when I was a teenager. Fast forward almost 40 years and I bought one of these and realised how much I missed the old one. This is a great jacket option for NZ conditions, throw on when it’s a bit overcast a windy and still be able to wear when the sun comes out without cooking to death.”
“Improved version of 1984 pattern uniform and what preceded S95 with large (not Canadian type buttons). Mine arrived in mint condition, great addition to the collection.”
