Depends on specific item and what you want out of them. The mtm options from China generally are better for /fa/ purposes as stated above but the US/UK repros tend to better made and closer to originals (ATF Texled, SM Wholesale, Richard Underwood etc) but they also for the most part copy the sizing and fit of the originals which means that everything except German field blouses are probably gonna fit like shit.

The Tatenokai uniform is a very interesting set of clothing. "Issued" with the brown winter tunic set and the white summer uniform, the summer tunic was reminiscent of the officer coats worn by prewar revolutionary young officers.

Designed by a tailor by the name of Tsukumo Igarashi, it was nothing like the uniforms of the other rightists (of all flavors, be they thugs or student nationalists) and many who considered themselves authentic nationalists thought Mishima was LARPing with his money. All this changed with his ritual suicide which put him up there in Japanese patriotic pantheon with martyrs like Yamaguchi Otoya and Kita Ikki.

Pictured are members of 防共挺身隊 or Anticommunist Defensive Self-Sacrifice Corps, an outfit run by Yamaguchi-gumi via the Koudoukai. Gang-related rightists and student nationalists frequently sported US Army or JSDF surplus uniforms or navy blue BDU-style uniforms based on garments worn by the Riot Police.
