uniforms

Post by ausy »

I seem to remember reading some time ago about new "combat style" trousers that were going to be issued. Can we get these or are we stuck with the usual, blue holes in pockets ones.

I ordered trousers last week and got the basic RM style ones so I am guessing te combats are still not yet available.

The new uniforrm was supposed to be available from the 1st of April.
Guess they've got to use up the stock of the current uniform first. :roll:

The new uniform looks pretty cool in my opinion, they've got them in Brighton & Hove. They look very much like an express courier company, the combats look OK though!

Pictures here...
