what gay porno is this?

why isnt anyone else contributing? I have all these great fotos

Gotta love all these awkward photos from Uncle Sam's Army Navy Outfitters.

>>13202222
Yeah but for here these are practically OC

the world needs to see these

This is a lot of effort to make a stupid point, Anon.

Can I mix a pair of beat up timberlands with terrorwave?

I'm interested in trying something. Since I noticed people commented on my fits a lot in whatever that thread was, what would people think of doing a literal dress-up game? I'd have to catalogue what I actually own for the benefit of people that don;t save all my pictures (you weirdos), but it would be kinda interesting to see what people come up with. In lieu of anyone else posting themselves at any rate.

>>13202622
There he is

>>13202622
Oi Telny, I got you a pair of boards to put on the white jacket. The embroidered starts might look dynamite af if sewn to a cap.

>>13202673
It definitely is a summer jacket.

>>13202339
Absolutely

>>13202693
What's that type of pants called?

>>13202217
name of the jacket?

>>13202705
It's a German Navy work jacket.

>>13202722
thx, senpai

Are Norwegian troops effay?

>>13202751
Yes.

>>13202758
Ebin :DDD

>>13202766
Those are quality, is that from a store page?

>>13202770
Official regulations, brah.
You can find PDFs on the Norwegian military's official website (scroll down): https://forsvaret.no/fakta/uniformer-medaljer-heraldikk/uniformer

>>13202777
Cool. They even have a brochure for pregnant humans.

>>13202758
id on boots?

>>13202777
Cool!

>>13202836
Jack Pyke Hunters, but they've changed the design I've had them so long.

This thread needs some more terror wave and partisan core inspiration.

Not sure how to say this nicely; but...

Unless you live in a very rural area you will look and be treated like a complete autist if dressed in full milspo. Most of these fits are not very /fa/

>>13202977
Whatdoyagot?

Indonesian, still not sure if I should cop.

>>13202279
I was not making any point - I thought everyone could have a good laugh of these.

They're spurious fits at best but at least they show people what NOT to do :P

>>13202622
Telny if you do this I will do the same, we could do a joint thread sometime.

You know where to reach me.

>>13202622
Your shit is wrinkled af

Anyone ever tried layering camo under other clothes?

>>13203503
I have - it's usually a pretty nice effect

ayyyyy I got this one. Austrians make the best milspo shit

>>13203247
Oh fuck we need to bring back /readcoat-core/

>>13202704
think they're just dickies 874 or something similar

>>13202622
while it's an interesting idea, sizing and taking your body shape into account might be a bit of a mental stretch. maybe sorting garments by s/m/l and color?

thoughts?

>>13203939
There's not that much size variation in the things I own for the most part. I like to be comfy.

>>13204064
consider exploring different cuts/silhouettes. one of the easiest ways to spice up fits alongside color theory. interesting garments like pic related are ruined by boring/unflattering silhouettes.

>>13204074
Knoch is better at that.

>>13202622
Where did you get your bulletproof(?) vest from?

>>13202977
People say this time and time again as if we didn't know. We probably know better than you what it's like to wear full milspo in the city and how people react to that - weird looks mostly.

>>13204064
thaaaaaaat looks like a the smallest M90 I have ever seen.

Size?

I want this.

>>13204697

Then why continue to dress like it? Do you like being an autist?

There’s a time and place for full Milspo, the city isn’t it.

>>13204683
A police auction. I've lost the ebay page, but some constabularies sell things from time to time.

>>13204707
I sold it to get the fixed hood version. I'm sure it was the 170cm 65kg size.

>>13202172
Where did you plant the bombs Fatman?

>>13203845
w2c

>>13204891
I think it's beautiful, isn't that all that counts?

>>13202622
I fully support this idea. But how would you sort all of your stuff? By country? By occasion (field/work/service/parade)?

>>13204891
Seriously though, there are a bunch of styles for fragile people like you, milsurp isn't really one of them.

>>13202622
Hey, that sounds like a good idea.

>>13205091
I'm supposing it;d have to be mixed with normal(er) items, so I was going to just split it by garment type.

>>13205123
Sounds good to me, DUDE.

>>13204931
Did it comes with plates or?

>>13205263
And what exactly do I search for?

It's better to... have one than not to have.

hey, the old boot thread is autosage and the new one hasn't caught on yet so I'll try here.
I have some vintage combat boots that I think are pretty common but if they'd get a collectable price I'd want to sell them.
The best reason they'd be valuable is that they're an odd size:
>13 narrow
otherwise they're old but nothing too special:
>US Ro-Search
>stamped 1971
>11 eye
>all-leather, black
>chevron tread pattern w/Ro-Search logo and size stamp
condition:
>lots of "patina", a few places scraped the grain kinda deep against a rock or w/e but leather still solid
>tread shows some wear but chevron pattern still fully intact
I got them NOS at a thrift for cheap and it took for-fucking-ever to break them in so if they're common I'd just assume keep them. These usually go for $35-80. But they're heavy as hell and I've seen some go for really high prices (maybe because they were Korea-era?) so if mine are valuable I'll sell 'em no problem.
Also, should I sell with patina or polish them up?

>>13203920
Thanks anon

>>13205076
those are common as hell jungle boots. searching "combat boot" would probably bring them up by itself, add "jungle" "tropical" or "vietnam" to narrow search from billions to mere hundreds of sellers

black uniforms hadn't been "phased out", don't educate people if you don't know shit

>>13205306
This is absolutely awful. Certainly bad news.

>>13205570
Sure, many part-time SS members kept wearing them beyond the late 30s, but actual field units wore army-style field grey.

>>13205208
I saw a DUBON parka in woodland, looked kinda nice.

>>13205263
>>13205265
It has filler, I seem to remember it's ballistic rated but without plates I don;t know to what level. I think it came up when I was looking for stab vests, but just searching ballistic vest maybe?

>>13205429
Yes. it's K9.

>>13203845
in what conditions are books like this acceptable? in my country, 90% of combat boots I can find is not entirely leather, but like pic related, except most is all black. Could they go with a normal outfit?

>>13204761
me too, nobodys selling it.

>>13203868

>>13205794
Nigga how old are you? Wasn’t Adam ant a thing in the 70s?

>>13205092

>fragile

Wouldn't call myself fragile; more like fashionable and realistic. Most of the fits in this thread are Halloween tier

>>13205802
who makes the best black jungle boots and which version are they?
I know Wellco has done several jungle boot iterations and only a few are any good for daily wear. I don't need a steel punji plate but I don't want the narrow ass sole. Vibram is ideal.

>>13205123
sounds fun!

you're probably my #1 /fa/ inspiration. not the clothes, although you got some nice wears, but rather you always just seem really happy and comfortable in your fits and show a real passion for what you like. 10/10

>>13203979
Panzer suits are very effay

>>13206166
I have been pretty happy with my Bellevilles. I still miss the old made in USA Altama boots, but sadly those days are over.

do someone has fit pics of people casually wearing gorkas pref the ana 2 model

>>13204064
Where the hell do you live? I thought it was deep slav core but your plug looks British but the fridge to the tv is British 1988 or so.

What is this mystery.. time traveler?

where do i get proper milspo?

thrifting doesn't find shit and i can only find so much on sites like sportsmansguide without paying a shit ton

>>13202751
>black socks and jesus sandals

Somebody went out and bought a canadian AFV jacket today

(it was me)

The sizing is MESSED UP on these.

I am a size 36'' Chest and I am wearing a size EXTRA LARGE regular in these photos.... That's just weird.


Something is up with the sizing scale - I tried on 5+ Jackets at the shop and the difference in tightness and cut even between jackets of the same size classification (E.G. SmallReg) was crazy. The Canadian army has some stuff they need to figure out :P

>>13206185
It may take a while.

>>13206224
Ta. I don;t care much for the fashion world in general. It sounds really trite but if I can get people to think more like 'sod this thing, I'm going to try x' rather than just copy infographs all day then that'd be dandy.

>>13206424
Slav is a state of being. Allow me to present background proof that the UK is actually pretty shit and that people coming here thinking the streets are paved with gold are mugs.

>>13206635
>>13206639
Someone was asking about sizing on those, it is quite hard to give advice on them.

>>13202039
Gonna order a telogreika. I think they look fucking great

(not a commie btw)

>>13203132
I live in Indo right now.

Don't cop. They look like shit in person and are terrible quality. It will make you look unironically like an 8 year old in a halloween costume.
>unless thats what youre into

>>13207080
As someone from a former Soviet republic, I'll never cease to be amazed at how guys from well-off Western countries obsess over what are essentially ultra-cheap work duds. People here wore shitty felt boots and padded jackets because nothing else was available. As soon as the USSR collapsed and markets were flooded with hand-me-downs from Europe, everyone geared up in brand name ski parkas and whatnot, leaving the primitive old Soviet-made clothing behind.

>>13207127
From me, the quality of western clothing is shite for the most part. It doesn;t have to last and it doesn't have to perform in weather outside of scurrying from one building to another. I'd rather take something that had to be durable and effective by necessity. Plus you know, they look kinda rad.

c/n?

>>13207127
I think they look pretty good, despite being a plain jacket that was made purely to be practical

Plus, it was designed to keep soldiers warm in the Russian winter so it's a great jacket to wear in the cold

>>13206891
I was going to move to the UK to the areas around London until I realize how expensive it is.

>>13207127
I understand that. The jackets also probably represent something negative to you, so I can see why wou wouldn't understand other peoples interest.

>>13207229
Living costs and wages will always fall into a ratio (unless you live in a genuinely poor country), I don't know why people don't check before moving. We get a lot of poles in our houseshare because they looked at the wages and the eyes lit up with dollar signs, only to then realize that a one bedroom flat rent can eat up half your income. Not to mention tax and VAT.

>>13206599
You got a problem with Jesus, brah?

>>13207298
...is that something you own?

>>13207252
Yeah, I checked an indexer that compares rent vs cost of bread vs wages and other things.

Looking at Berlin now because it's 10% cheaper than the major cities near where I live

>>13207080
Owner of a telogreika here (Pic related)

This is the smallest size I could find and the belt cinch had to be cinched way tighter than it is designed to in order to obtain the still-too-bulky silhouette seen here.


Be prepared to:
A) Be disappointed in the fit
B) not care about the fit
C)Invest time and/or money fixing the fit

>>13207470
It's like wearing a giant mobile pillow on your body though. If you use public transit I highly recommend one as a commuter jacket. You will PTFO on every bus and every train ride will feel like it's half the time.

>>13207470
>>13207471
holy fuck that is sexy
oversized might just be a good thing? how does it look with some baggier pants and less tightened?
were did you cop it? would dye it black if i were you, it reminds me a lot of that Craig green jacket

>>13207470
>>13207471
Thanks for the input, much appreciated

The one I'm ordering doesn't have the belt part because I don't really like the look of it myself
I also like the collared one more. Here is what I'm planning on ordering
http://schusters.ru/en/shop/russia-1918-1945/uniform-1/telogreika-cotton-padded-jacket-1941-detail

Also, what size would you recommend for a 5'10, roughly 75kg male? I'm confused by the size system because I'm a pleb who only orders with S, M, L etc. I usually order large for jackets.

>>13207498
>http://schusters.ru/en/shop/russia-1918-1945/uniform-1/telogreika-cotton-padded-jacket-1941-detail


I can vet schuster - they're a good brand.
Slow turnaround and communication though, be prepared for that. Add Julia Gorbat on facebook - she's the coordinator and will get you your stuff faster.


As for sizing they use a 1 -2 -3 system.
Mine is a soviet size 3, which is about a M.

I can't reccomend you a size but I am a size 36'' chest and mine is a size 3, so judge the fit by the pics above.

Schuster does custom work for not a lot more money, so I'd just recommend contacting Julia and she'll make sure you get the right size based on measurements you give her.

>>13207495

I copped mine from eBay for $50 USD. I haggled a soviet surplus owner down from$100.

I don't have any pics of it untightened or with baggier stuff right now but it would look pretty retrofuture that way (think Cowboy Bebop).

I once saw an oldtimer in Amsterdam coasting around on his bike with one and I was starstruck, so I bought mine shortly thereafter.

>>13207498
ALSO when buying from schuster pay in rubles.

They charge less in rubles than in USD and I'm not talking about exchange rates

>>13207561
jelly as fuck, why not just size down to a 2 if 3 its so large?
> might comp but too broke

>>13207554
>>13207564
Thanks alot, cant wait to sport this in the winter

>>13207576
Size 1 and 2 are incredibly rare. Sellers (mostly) don't have them any more and the people who bought them early on want too much for them.

Best bet if you're slim and want a telo is to
A) Buy one from schuster
B) Buy one from a seller that is too big and take it apart, rebuild it at proper size after adjusting the pattern to fit.

>>13207578
You're very welcome, will help where I can.
Try Keywords 'Vatnik' & 'Fufaika' in addition to 'Telogreika' when searching. It will help you maximise your coverage when looking for the best deal.

>>13207471
I picked up a bulgarian knock-off incredibly cheaply, but it;s a little awkward to wear.

Incidently while I was in Berlin getting tattooed, I discussed rent with some natives and apparently it's really really cheap.

>>13207597
Seller 'Arcisa' on eBay has come of those in good prices.

I didn't know they had such an amazing crotch-strap on them though

>>13207141
I copped :^)

>>13206596
Looking for it is half the fun: sniping people for drying stocks, roaming ebay, wasting hours on internet continually switching between 50 surplus sites are all part of the milspo experience

You could also go the route of buying fabric and a machine

>>13206596
>where do i get proper milspo?

Pretty much just from uniform replica sites or ebay

>>13207620
>mcdonalds +13.57 %

That's a human right abuse right there..

>>13207657
I'm most pleased with the shoulder boards, subdued uh...something like a warrant officer I think.

>>13207666
That's pretty sick! I kept the boards off my summer jacket and just fill the holes with the laces. I like how they look sort of like Sci-Fi greeblies.

>>13207318
Not exactly. It's currently up for sale and I'm going to try my best to get it.

>>13207674

>>13206153
>Wouldn't call myself fragile
No shit, it was I who called you fragile! Why? Because you subordinate your sense of aesthetics to social acceptability. Because to you fashion seems to be about appearing agreeable to other people. That attitude is neither fashionable nor "realistic", whatever that may mean in this context.

>>13207674
>>13207675
But joking aside, I am very interested.

>>13208142
No problem famalam, I'll let you know if and when I get it.

>>13208150
Ah I didn;t realise it was you. Odds are good then, I wouldn;t want to take it off you if you wanted it though.

>>13207141

damn... sold out

>>13206153
To speak to your earlier point - I wear shit like this and I've worn it in London and Amsterdam and Belgrade as well as in several airports inbetween. (I'm using these cities as a metric because you seem to think bigger city = worse reaction to civilians wearing army gear)
I also live near/in a major city in my province and I never have any trouble. From my perspective you clearly have no experience dressing this way and so you don't know what you're talking about.

The reaction that you think people are having to my clothing is unique to you alone OR people have had it so infrequently I haven't noticed.

>>13208363
and even if they did have a 'bad reaction' or thought I looked 'funny'/'weird' my manners seemed to have been enough to change their mind about me because I always have good service at restaurants/bars and in shopping areas, so I must be doing something right :P
