UrPeaceKeeper Posted July 8, 2006 Report Share Posted July 8, 2006 Strange. Especially since I haven't been able to find any MARPAT utilities made by Propper. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Seconded, I've seen pictures of "Propper" MARPAT on forums before, but I have yet to find a store online that sells "Propper" MARPAT, All I can find is Tru-Spec, or the Real thing, My Tru Spec is rubbish, its faded terribly and the real thing is too damn expensive for me to have the desire to buy it. They have alot of ACU stuff, which I hate with a passion. Links to Propper MARPAT (The company Propper mind you) selling stores would be nice Link to post Share on other sites

toilet_bear Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 You can buy a real US Airforce woodlands bdu shirt / pants set on ebay for about $15. Try to get it from someone who just left the army or whatever... I got two sets, they smell like cigarettes and have rank patches etc. How authentic is that? Link to post Share on other sites

TSaysanasong Posted July 10, 2006 Report Share Posted July 10, 2006 Here is something I noticed between my military issued ACUs and TRU SPEC ACU. MY TRU SPEC ACU somehow doesnt fade as bad as my military issued ACUs. Both have been washed the same amount of times as well. Weird. Link to post Share on other sites
Phantom Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 i dont know about u guys but i never had any fading problems with any of my camo the "brand" name itself does not dictate the quality of the fabric. i have TruSpec OVTS but the fabric is made by Original Tiger Stripe Products, it was only cut and taylored by TruSpec. in fact, i have 2x Tigers, the other is made by Rothco. both at least 1yr old, has not faded at all but it maybe the way i wash it? i wash them after every game but i never hang them out, i just dry them in the clothes dryer. hanging it out will definately fade it as the sun fades anything.

Respiro Diablo Posted July 21, 2006 Report Share Posted July 21, 2006 I don't support buying those "genuine" MARPATs. Why? Because you didn't earn the right to wear the emblem. Those brave men worked their asses off and they deserve it. You don't. It's respect. Flame on <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I understand the sentiment but disagree. I have seen many people wearing a shirt or hat of something I was a part of and/or worked my "*albatross*" off for, and never really gave it a second thought. Besides, Tru-Spec fades like crazy. And also, in this day and age, if kids (majority of airsofters are pre-teens, teens) want to wear military uniforms and engage in a paramilitary sport, I support that. By doing so, maybe it will engender in them a respect for the military that is sorely lacking in America these days. Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing makes me mad more than someone who doesn't know how to properly blouse their boots or wear a Beret. (Even though I hate the Berets) Link to post Share on other sites
Robot 2000 Posted July 22, 2006 Report Share Posted July 22, 2006 why can't people just find their local army surplus shop . . . if it's used by an ARMY who entrust their LIVES to it, it's probably good enough for you to play with toy guns in. Link to post Share on other sites
