ColDaz Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Hey, Looking for a more unique look my team has come up with a custom camouflage design. All we need now is someone to make some BDUs or similar with that pattern. Anyone know anywhere? Thanks, Darren Link to post Share on other sites
101matt1 Posted August 5, 2007 Report Share Posted August 5, 2007 Check with wasted_youf. He does (or did) custom tailored BDUs in the UK. He's in America now, but may be able to help you out. :-/ Link to post Share on other sites

The Waco Kid Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 There are certainly fabric manufacturers that do custom/short run prints but you would probably have to find a seperate firm or person to sew them. It is probably going to be a costly exercise getting a commercial garment maker to run off a dozen or so custom sets of camo. I do recall a fairly well renowned Paintball team, the "Vulcans", getting uniforms custom made with a pattern camo based on overlay prints of Mr Spock.... but that was probably the 80's so it was okay. If you get the fabric printed & have access to a machine building the uniforms isn't THAT difficult. I am just doing my tenth MarPat based conversion and have previously made several crawl suits from woodland BDU's. In some ways sewing a straight forward BDU from scratch isn't as much work as taking a part an existing one & rebuilding. If you can't get them built to a decent cost I really recommend having a go yourselves. Anyway try Wasted_Youf, he does good work. His website is uktacgear. Link to post Share on other sites
General Mazaki Posted August 6, 2007 Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 It would be cool to have custom camo, but you are going to have to shell out a few bones to get it made. Plus, getting gear in the same camo (vests, pouches, etc.) would be near impossible. I would suggest getting multicam if you want to look unique. Digital camos are good too.

ColDaz Posted August 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2007 Ok, that's cool. A lot of help there, so digital pints for all of ya. General Mazaki: Black gear = no worries. Trying that website now. Link to post Share on other sites

I would suggest getting multicam if you want to look like every other twelve year old who parents have too much money. Digital camos are good too. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> uniqueness, difficult. 1) Maybe a short run of Hyper Stealth ECU's, good luck getting it. 2) A pattern from one of the smaller ex-Warsaw pact countries. 3) Choose an existing common/older pattern and do a "good quality" loadout. For example fully kit your team out with well made uniforms & equipment, not everyone needs to have there gear set up identically just have a cohesive theme and pay attention to details. Currently one of the teams I am involved with uses Propper subdued urban digital, basically a copy of the un-issued USMC urban pattern. I haven't seen another player using this as yet and I have been building custom made matching accessories. However I am sure it will not be long before it becomes more common (as multicam has done) and the team may decide to change. You can't sit still for long in the world fashion....

General Mazaki Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 Heyyyyyyyyy. Don't edit my post like that. Ya little Chicken McNasty I happen to like multicam and digi camos. Link to post Share on other sites
Miah Posted August 7, 2007 Report Share Posted August 7, 2007 But he's looking for unique to outfit an entire team. Now that Propper has both digital & multicam available for just a bit higher than normal they're both going to become common. Miah Link to post Share on other sites
