    I like the British DPM pattern myself. Have full tops and bottoms in that.

    Also have a DPM boonie, DPM Webtex chest rig and some pattern 58 webbing I want to give a go. (Praying it's not horribly uncomfortable)

    Currently I have all black playing gear (boots, mask, pants, tac vest, marker).

    But i am looking into getting in some woodland digi camo. Dirt cheap from china.

    acu at the moment, but really wanna get some multicam, also, i wear a Scott paintball mask which has detachable face/ear guard and peak, it's very comfortable and never fogs up

    dont mean to hijack this but would any of you lads know if theres a shop i can walk into either here or up north, for the sake of trying items on before buying? Im having a helluva hard time ordering things off the net - lets say im uhm....im not the same size i was when i joined the RAF ;)

    cheers lads

    (or shiva...how handy would you be in this case bud?)

    i have 3 types...acu, using a neoprene mask and i want to get what kdouglas has there on the googles front, subdued tiger stripe (have not used it yet) and the subdued tiger stripe swat outfit...again i have not used that yet. i might go for the multicam when the price drops a bit.

    If and when I go to a skirmish, I'll probably wear either my Multicam or my MARPAT.

    I have no idea what places like HRTA are like, but would CADPAT be really unsuiteable? One of my mates is over in america and he's picking me up some cheap army surplus.

    i know bud...it doesnt actually tell you anything new like...

    example - you wear a 40-42 shirt irl ... you order the corresponding shirt from flecktarn.... it turns out to be a few sizes too large.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 960 ✭✭✭Harekin


    Couple of sizes too large across the chest or in leg length is fine, depends. Just get the waist size right and nothing else too oversized and you'll be fine!
