Well, Finally my mid-exam has ended. Looks like I've got some time to create a review about one of my creation.

Recce Smock in Swedish M90 Camouflage Pattern
I don't know well about its history, some fellow collector says that this smock were came from Canada, but some people says that "Recce" were one of British regiment.
These smock is one of my unique stuff, in details, It has 17 Pocket, which two of them were use as Elbow Reinforcement. 6 Pocket on chest (triple layer pocket), 4 layers on lower hip (double layer pockets), 2 pocket on each sleeve, and 3 pocket were at lower back. well, I'm sure you wouldn't need a shopping bag when you wear this.
It has 2 drawstring, one on the middle and lower hip.
2 underarm zipper were added to makes better air circulation if needed.
It also has rank tabs on center chest.
One of most interesting parts were its hood.
Hoodie that attach on high collar were adjustable, shorter adjustment were fit to normal head, meanwhile longer one designed to fit with a tactical helmet on it. When the hood was not in use, it has a snap to tie it and keep it tidy on your neck.
Recce Smock were loose fit, we decide to do this to anticipate on using liner on colder climate.
I ever try to use this smock a few days and I have several conclusion :
- These smock fit to use on cold or hot situation.
- Loose fit makes air circulation goes better, and also possible to use liner within it at colder climate.
- Fit on high moisture area, water repellent fabrics will keep colds things outside, surely it would be fit for adventurer.
- Drawstring makes it keep steady and better mobile when you need to move fast.
Minus
- Its too heavy (1,7kg using Swedish Pattern M90).
- You wouldn't use this smock anywhere of course, people will stick their eyes on you if you use this smock with your spouse at mall or cinema.
- Flame Retardant and Insect Repellent chemical makes the fabrics little bit stinks, meanwhile we must be careful to wash it.
