    Me and my buddy are having alot of hassle searching for airsoft sites that sell clothing for smaller lads.

    Im 5 ft 10 inches, have a size 30 waist and 32 leg aswell as fitting a small/medium. My buddy is in a worse position than me. Hes 5ft 5 inches, takes size 28 waist and usually wears extra small /small clothing.

    Every site ive seen caters for medium upwards and any mediums I have bought strike me as being unusually large fit for a medium.

    Anybody share this problem?

    Know of any places one can buy BDU's, Combat shirts etc. that cater for smaller lads and that have acurate sizing.

    Helikon make good gear at reasonable prices, patterns include Camogrom (their clone of Multicam) & MARPAT, best news for you is that sizes start at XS. Check out thecamoshop.ie or call in to see Alan in the shop, he's also regularly @ Red Barn.

    British dpm comes in medium size of 28 waist. I would need a pair for each leg mind you, but the desert dpm is very cool looking and they are made from hard wearing materials.

    I would imagine they make them that way as they take in a lot of younger soldiers. There is a fantastic desert smock in stock in the n11 surplus shop outside bray.

    I'm a 5ft 6, size 10 female airsofter...have to order small off most websites and get them tailored to fit if they are ridiculously massive on me... it adds a bit to your over all spend but worth it for comfort, roughly 15e to alter waist size, 10-15e to shorten the legs
    Did see one website offering a ladies clothing section, when i clicked on it all they had were olive drab hot pants :rolleyes: lol!
