Great. The Belgian jacket is based on its English model. Production began sometime at the turn of the 1940s and 1950s, and gradually a large number of variants were created. Those from the beginning of production were similar to their model, in terms of cut and color and material. However, the zipper was deeper, not continuous, but it reached somewhere to the clasped edge of the upper pockets and the colored fields are rounder. This is difficult to explain, but the difference is clear. Over time, the Belgian variant moved further away from its model. The colors changed, especially the green "squeaked", from the original twill the material changed to a thick canvas and the zipper was used continuously until the bottom. Some variants are completely different, bellows pockets fastened with three patents, a long zipper and a double fabric in the shoulders reaching up to the back. All in all, they only have a camouflage jacket used by paratroopers. The Belgian variety is generally considered by "experts" in the Czech Republic to be a full-fledged copy of the English original. And I can't agree with that.

Presunuté z inej témy : Podľa informácií, ktoré som sa dočítal v materiáloch o belgickom prvom výsadkovom prápore sa do Belgicka po vojne spolu s vycvičenými výsadkármi dostala aj britská výstroj a výzbroj. Medzi inými aj Denisony. Belgickí Paracomados tieto používali údajne až do roku 1960 ( nasadenie v Kongu ). Pokiaľ ide o rozdiely medzi jednotlivými verziami britského a belgického Denisona, tu som očividne s informáciami zaostal.
