Slangvel – SADF Style Smock

Many of you may remember Slangvel for his custom boonie and M43 hats he sells on eBay. Occassionally, he also makes smocks and generally in the South African Defense Force Slangvel or “snakeskin” style. That name derives from the high tenacity fabric used to reinforce high wear areas which reminded wearers of snake skin.

This time, he had some Austrian camo fabric and decided to make a South African style Para Smock. In fact, this one is available right now on eBay.

    That is awesome! The first things I ever bought from him were a Recce style boonie and an M43 style cap made from that Austrian ‘Zeltbahn’ fabric.

    This reminds me that I need to ask him to make me one of those SADF Para Smocks in PenCott-BadLands camo. 🙂 I understand that he also does a matching SADF style helmet cover too.

    Looks awesome. I have always liked the old austrian “spotted carpet” (Fleckerlteppich as they used to call it in the Bundesheer)

    But those shiny buttons are clunterproductive to the concealment purpose. 🙁
