Black mesh and airtex top with long sleeves and hard armour protective pads at elbows, shoulders, chest and spine. It fastens centre front with a black zip and has two very wide wrap over belt sections at the waist which velcro together. At the chest and forearms are black webbing straps which can be tightened. The spine protection down the back is in seven shaped sections and covers the lower back at the bottom.

Designed to be worn as underwear, underneath an outer garment. No makers label. Labelled 'S' in the back of the neck.

Blue cotton twill General Post Office uniform jacket with red 'GPO' lettering embroidered on each collar. The jacket fastens centre front with five black plastic 'bullseye' removable buttons with wide stitched facings and has two large patch pockets at hip level on the front. It has two lengths of fabric stitched into the inside (seams visible from the outside) at a downward angle from each side of the front opening to the pockets - probably as strengthening for the pockets.

The red lettering has been embroidered onto similar blue cotton as the main jacket and then the patches machine sewn onto the collar points. On the left chest are two stitched eyelet holes (for a badge). It has a hanging loop in the back of the neck. Run and fell double stitched seams, no back centre seam or vents. No labels - there are remnants of stitching on the inside where the labels would have been sewn.
