New Royal Navy combat number 4 uniform.

A few pictures and a bit of a story about it in the Daily Mail here.Mouldy new Royal Navy uniforms arrive 'unwearable' | Daily Mail Online


The caps were mouldy upon delivery, cue outrage in the Mail.
We had this kind of stuff, or similar in about 2003 but it was pulled almost immediately because some one said it didn't look that smart. As I recall.


To me, it looks a bit too Hong Kong. Why do we always now try to style or resemble the Americans>? Naval uniform seems to always baffle the Board of the Admiralty.
In the picture in the Mail, the wren subby looks really sad and miserable, and the Lieutenant has a bit of gut he'd be wise to get rid of. Maybe its the new uniform?
