Got a new DPM combat smock for £10 from Damage, the big army surplus place in Camden Market. No website, unfortunately, but well worth a visit, if you happen to be in North London.
It's in the Chalk Farm Road part of the market: as you come out of Camden Town tube, head down Chalk Farm Road towards Chalk Farm, and take one of the entrances to the market on your left, after you've crossed over the canal.
It is a bit of a rabbit warren, the market; easiest to just ask one of the security guys to point you towards the army surplus place.
Lots of other stuff in there (some of it quite unusual) that may also be of interest. It's the only proper army surplus place I've found in London. There just don't seem to be that many around, anymore.
They get their stuff from the same warehouses as Silvermans, but sell it much, much cheaper. They seem to have a pile it high, sell it cheap, sort of philosophy.
