BRIEF HISTORY
Dixie's Corner, a notable retail outlet for military and outdoor enthusiasts, has an interesting history, particularly in relation to DPM (Disruptive Pattern Material) webbing. Here's a brief overview:
Dixie's Corner
- **Establishment and Location**: Dixie's Corner was established in the early 2000s in the United Kingdom. Located in Abergavenny, Wales, it quickly became a popular destination for military personnel, outdoor adventurers, and collectors of military surplus.
- **Specialization**: The store specializes in a wide range of military surplus gear, outdoor equipment, and tactical supplies. This includes uniforms, boots, camping gear, and various types of webbing.
DPM Webbing
- **Origins and Development**: DPM webbing refers to military gear made with Disruptive Pattern Material camouflage. DPM was first introduced in the British Army in the 1960s and became the standard camouflage pattern used until it was replaced by Multi-Terrain Pattern (MTP) in the 2010s.
- **Usage**: DPM webbing was used extensively by the British military and other forces worldwide. It included load-carrying equipment like pouches, belts, and vests designed to integrate seamlessly with the camouflage pattern.
Dixie's Corner and DPM Webbing
- **Stock and Supply**: Dixie's Corner became known for its extensive stock of DPM webbing and other DPM-patterned gear. This included both new and surplus items, catering to the needs of collectors, reenactors, and military personnel seeking replacement gear.
- **Transition to MTP**: With the British military's transition to MTP, Dixie's Corner adapted by stocking the newer pattern alongside remaining DPM items. This transition reflected broader changes in military surplus markets and the evolving needs of customers.
Community and Legacy
- **Customer Base**: The store built a loyal customer base, not just among military personnel but also among outdoor enthusiasts, survivalists, and hobbyists interested in military history and gear.
- **Online Presence**: Over time, Dixie's Corner expanded its reach with a robust online presence, allowing customers from around the world to purchase items through their website.
Dixie's Corner remains a respected name in the military surplus and outdoor gear community, known for its comprehensive selection and knowledgeable staff. Its history with DPM webbing highlights its role in preserving and distributing military equipment that holds both practical and historical significance.

Nice video mate - I actually put together and started using my webbing after watching one of your videos last year. Rather than having all that weight on my shoulders its such a pain reliever to have it on my hips! Always get one or two comments from people about 'preparing for a war' etc yeah yeah whatever to them! Keep the content coming, really enjoy it. Cheers pal

I think there's a bit of a mindset thing with it,
Most people load up a pack with the idea of 'I carry it from here to here and back',
Whereas the military outlook is 'I carry it to here, then here, then leave nonessentials at the harbour and continue on further...'
You need your guts with you and can manage to function perfectly well without the fluff.
Belt order is guts, Bergen is fluff...
😂🤘

Hi bex, wondering what happened to your channel... How's ya back doing mate.?? Great to see you again 👍😎

[@Surplus-Only]

The main channel is still there airing videos every Friday, but is due end very soon, & replaced by 2 other sister channels, with (Surplus Only) being one of them.
bexbugoutsurvivor is filmed a year in advance, and I haven't filmed anything for many months now, and when the remaining episodes are aired the channel will close. My back is ok but on very strong meds with heavy side effects.
The second part of the social experiment will restart bexbugoutsurvivor in October 2025 with 36 episodes, and the more familiar (bexbugoutsurvivor) content moved to membership or Patreon.
OTHER CHANNELS I OWN.
bex-treks (Lightweight camping)
bexbugoutsurvivor (Original ideas) none mainstream thinking.
Surplus Only (Military kit) displayed without personal opinion.
An announcement will come soon to all subscribers.

Hello Bex !
Question: Is there a difference in size / hight between a waterbottle and a utility pouch ?
I have the crusader Mk I cooker and like to hear which pouch you recommend !

I recently got some Desert Dpm kit and the WB is slightly larger than the large utility but doesn't have a collar on it.
Woodland Dpm, especially the older non-Molle variants may be different. 🤘🙂
