It's a set of Nomex overalls, not shirt and trousers. https://arniesairsoft.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/160651-iranian-embassy-siege80s-sas-loadout/

There's plenty of black overalls on Military 1st https://www.military1st.co.uk/11730002-mil-tec-swat-overall-black.html

Genuine issue vest https://www.fieldtextiles.co.uk/shop/clothing/jackets/sbs-sas-assault-vest-1123539.html (probably a bit steep but there's repros out there)

The Special Services can wear anything and still be scary, even going in dressed as Ronald McDonald would *hit anyone up...

I have a blue nomex suit and a vest that would possibly do the job, but I dont think I will be able to dig them out of the garage until next week though.

@Parramoom, These are the cheapest/closest coveralls I can find with a hood.

@parramoom bear in mind that those (or indeed any fire proof overalls) are going to be VERY warm!
