The Dutch short sleeve DPM field shirt is a lightweight field garment issued to the Royal Netherlands Army, designed for use in warm weather conditions. Based on the British Disruptive Pattern Material camouflage, the Dutch version features its own color variation, typically incorporating greens, browns, and darker tones suited to temperate environments.
 

Constructed from breathable cotton or poly cotton fabric, the shirt is intended to provide comfort in hotter climates while maintaining durability for regular use. Its short sleeve design allows for increased airflow, making it well suited for summer training, field duties, and deployments in warmer regions.

The layout is simple and practical, usually featuring a button front, chest pockets for essential items, and a straightforward cut that allows for ease of movement. Its design prioritizes functionality while remaining compatible with other issued equipment.
