Just a quick public service note, Sportsmansguide has new British Mil-Surp Desert DPM Gore-Tex pants and jackets in-stock at fair, IMO, prices. $25 for the pants and $45 for the jackets. I've owned and use both for four or five years and think that they offer a lot of value for the price. Probably not what you'd want to wear on a daily basis if you live in a rainforest, but for vast majority of us who don't, this gear will probably do the job as well as commercial gear costing several times as much.

The pants are SG # WX2-6254754.
The jackets are SG # WX2-236237

Please note that SG also has a very similar looking and priced windprood jacket in Desert DPM that is not Gore-Tex.

I'm not usually a fan of SG, but in this case I'll make an exception because these items are new and the price seems fair to me.

I bought a French parka in Woodland a while back. The quality of genuine milsurp stuff is generally amazing.

Warning, the zippers might be on the wrong side for ‘Mericans, but my parka was half the price of a U.S. one.

I have one of the French CCE gore-tex jackets and pants sets too. The material is thicker/heavier/stiffer than these Britsh-made uniforms.

Did you notice that the French CCE gore-tex was made in Germany? Think of all of those French soldiers who died fighting German soldiers over the paat 150 years, do you think that they would roll over in their graves if they knew that the French Army was buying their combat uniforms from the Boche?

I think that all of the European jacket zippers was on the wrong side for American men, but it just takes a little getting used to.

Thanks for the heads up, I have one of these but a backup at that price is hard to turn down.

The price has gone up somewhat since you posted - $54 now
