Try HMSupplies or army surplus. You are going to be hard pushed to find Jungle Green in good condition. They stopped manufacturing them back in 1990

Just remember to rip the Charcoal lining out if you don't want to get too hot and sweaty. If you are after the normal Soldier 95 clothing then PM me your sizes and I will see if I can help.
So thats why peoples' skin goes black after wearing them, ahhhhhh, makes sense now...

actually waterproof?

Are the NBC suits actually waterproof, or do they just have the charcoal lining to rip out?

Tks for the help

No they are not waterproof, normally the charcoal lining is there to protect the soldier for it's purpose. The only waterproof combats are Gortex, however the majority of scenario players that wear British combats are wearing Soldier 95 trousers and jacket. A few wear the shirt.

NBC suits when brand new have a water repellent coating but after use, they lose this. Then it's just the charcoal lining.
Hope this answers your question.
