Modified Swedish Snow Smock

[onfire]

Contrary to the ideas in the current 'how many jackets' thread ... I have too many jackets and I need the space more.

I bought a Swedish Snow Smock a few years ago, sewed a drawcord into the inside waist and dyed it greens, browns and blacks (which took some creativity and effort!). I then bought Barbour wax and waxed the hood and main body of the jacket ... but I didn't get around to doing the sleeves to finish it off. It hung in the house until last November when I wore it in the woods and marvelled at the fit and usefulness but I simply have too many jackets to keep then all!

Up for swaps is the smock as seen (fits from Medium to XXL) - I am XL at the moment and in the photo's - plus a (new I think) tin of Barbour wax to finish the sleeves.

In return ... anything that makes the postage seem worthwhile

Strangely tempting, I have a spanish survival knife or nice little mess tin going spare.

I'm wanting one of these but just plain white ready to dye green.

You could always get this and dye it white then green (I LIKE THE MISH MASH OF COLOURS) or you could get it and bleach it, then watch it fall apart before ypur very eyes.
I've found a laminated carbon steel machete or realtree baseball cap wear the leaves are sticking out a bit (at this point a picture is worth a thousand words lol) can take a piccie if interested.

Dont think it would dye if its been waxed.

I doubt it would, wasn't a serious suggestion (bit like the bleach)
I'll get my coat

Hi Shack, I would be interested in the machete as I keep wanting one but never quite justifying buying one! Would you PM me your address please?
