Are there any companies/websites in the US that sell British DPM camo jackets? Thanks.

If your going with the camo scheme because it looks right then by all means, but the current USMC marpat(Digi) works way better for tatical. Breaking your body outline into tiny tiny pieces that just blend well.

Also keep in mind that the british uniform items are garbage. They are very thin. While they were very comfortable and breathed a little better they do not hold up. Marpat is much thicker and will last longer. The brits in afghanistan were constantly changing in cammies for new ones because theirs wore so fast.
 
sportsman's guide has both forest & desert DPM in their current "HQ" catalog.
 
I think the reason he is asking is because the Brits are going to a MultiCam pattern, and they should be all over the place and cheap.
 
Sportsman's Guide has tons of "used" British gear which is sold sometimes at almost giveaway prices. I bought some used British Army camo shirts which were supposed to be used and were in fact brand new and they only cost $15 for a pack of 5. Although made from a lighter weight cotton than a similar GI bdu shirt at that price it was a steal. I also bought a brand new British army camo jacket which was made of very heavy duty cordura type nylon with zippers and adjustment tabs all over it for $10. That jacket alone would probably cost $100 if it was GI issue. They really have some bargains in their military surplus catalogs if you are willing to wait until they come along 5 or 6 times a year.
