/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

This is a bit more of a re-enactment question, but what's the availability of repro WW1 uniforms in general? Like, how hard it is to find all the little pieces and accessories to pull off an accurate impression of a specific unit?

Because i've been thinking of trying to build something, mainly for LARP purposes. I would like it to be accurate for a certain unit in certain time. Something like US troops guarding the mexican border to something like picture related, the siberian expedition and cold weather clothing. Naturally, there probably isn't going to be LARP about that certain conflict which happened to involve my very specific uniform of the 2nd Engineer Battallion, but the outfit would be somewhat accurate for beginnings of 19th century.

But how should i set from here? Like, are there some forums centered around WW1 re-enactment? I'm guessing they would have pretty good information.

I'll post this to the LARP thread too.
