New Style MTP 23 British Army PCS Combat Shirt (Latest Issue)
Experience the evolution of British military kit with the MTP 23 PCS Combat Shirt (Type 23). This is the latest genuine issue update to the Personal Clothing System, specifically redesigned to offer superior comfort under body armour and better utility in the field.
Distinguishable by its zipped shoulder pockets and integrated shoulder padding, the Type 23 shirt addresses user feedback from the front line to create a more tactical, functional, and comfortable combat jacket.
Key Upgrades (Type 23 vs Standard PCS)
-
Zipped Shoulder Pockets: Unlike the standard Velcro-only flaps, the Type 23 features vertical side-access zips on the upper arm pockets. This allows you to access essential kit (maps, notebooks, ear pro) easily while prone or wearing a vest.
-
Shoulder Comfort System: Includes internal compartments with removable neoprene shoulder padding. This significantly reduces fatigue and chafing when wearing heavy webbing, Bergens, or plate carriers.
-
Tailored Tactical Fit: The Type 23 features a more athletic cut with a slightly narrowed waist and pleated back, designed to reduce bulk and prevent the shirt from "riding up" under armour.
-
Insect Repellent Treated: Genuine Type 23 "Warm Weather" stock is often treated with Permethrin-based insect repellent (check label), making it ideal for woodland and high-insect environments.
Standard Features
-
Genuine British Army Surplus: The current authentic issue uniform.
-
Material: Lightweight yet durable 70/30 Polycotton blend for rapid drying and breathability in warm climates.
-
Tactical Layout:

Mandarin Collar: Adjustable collar that can be worn up to protect the neck from slings and straps.
Perfect For:
-
Professional Use: Ideal for serving personnel looking to upgrade their older kit or replace damaged uniform.
