Collection: British WW2 Denison Airborne 2nd GEN CAMO

The colors of the 2nd pattern smock also differed from those of the earlier smocks, with the base color varying from a sand to a light yellowish-olive combination, and overlying brushstrokes of reddish brown and dark olive green. These colors were thought better suited to the North Western European theatre.

The Denison smock was a distinctive camouflage garment used by British airborne forces during World War II. The smock, officially known as the "Smock, Denison Airborne Troops," was designed for paratroopers and glider-borne troops and played a significant role in British airborne operations. The Denison smock featured a unique camouflaged pattern, often referred to as the "brushstroke" or "splinter" pattern. The pattern consisted of irregular vertical and horizontal stripes, creating a disruptive effect for concealment. The primary purpose of the Denison smock was to provide airborne troops with effective camouflage during airborne operations. The disruptive pattern was intended to break up the outline of the wearer and provide concealment in a variety of environments.
