Epic now have a Denison on their web site at £150 so clearly not the Rangercamp one. (Well, I wouldn't have thought so anyway as it is £50 more than SoF!)

I'm intrigued enough to have a look at Belters to see what they are like!
take a few pics chommers, they do look very much like the rangercamp " worn/faded" ones....
They look like the Rangercamp ones to me, right down to the half zip one having a short zip rather than a zip that's too long (which they should have).
If the full zip one also has a poppers at the back to hold the tail out of the way, then that's another thing that's actually wrong for an officers one as far as I'm aware and makes it more likely to be a Rangercamp.
not a great pic, but i am sure its the same smock.
Look very similar to Rangercamp only £50 dearer
Well, either Julian has dropped a bollock, or these are different, or SoF prices are going up pretty soon!
I have noticed, that lately Julians prices are on the increase. whole dollar/pound thing is guess.

However as they were all entirely inidivudal items either simply retailored with the additn of an oversmock zip by the unit tailor, cuffs added/deleted, snaps and pockets again added or deleted *or* completley made up from scratch by professional tailors its nigh on impossible to say something is 'wrong' as an officers version as there was no issue 'officers' type or for that matter a prescribed cut and style like BD had.
Check brownings denision... concealed rather than patch pocket, waist draw string and slanted upper pockets with zips. Farby as hell that and 'wrong' by the reenactors convention that an officers denison was simply a 1st or second pattern with a long zip.

Well yes of course, but the point being if they're the same as the Rangercamp ones in the way they have been custom tailored then most likely they are the rangercamp ones.
