Updated review DPM cotton smock

[Lightspeed]

Ha! That was quicker than expected.....

The post just arrived delivering the detachable hood.

The only hood I could find of the correct size was Rip-Stop DPM.

It fits both the rip stop and Poly-Cotton jackets, and does not look out of place on either.

Its mounts by 5 buttons under the collar. The centre one of which can be reversed to hold the hood in roll-folded configuration behind the collar.

Like the built in version, this hood retains the wired snow peak, draw-string adjustment to face, and the neat clip together adjuster fasteners to keep the elements at bay.

It appears that the fit is every bit as good as the built-in hood variants, and I expect it will prove equal to in utility.

Cost of the hood is currently £5.99 delivered.
