/fa/ - Fashion

Hey M65 guy,

Reccomend the following:
Shorten sleeves to fall at your wrist at the absolute lowest.

If you want velcro go velcro BUT it wears out and gets full of dirt/hair easily, so reccomend keeping buttons.

If you want to go the extra mile, have the lady put darts in the back to take up the slack but don't let her ruin the cinchable waist by stitching the darts through it.

IMO $10 is EXTREMELY good price for the sleeve alteration so go all the way with this tailor if she's good and get the jacket restructured for your body. You will not regret.

Ah, a new thread.

thought this would be a good place to ask you guys know any good milspo tactical vests for the summer?

>>13276541
If you can find one.

>>13276544
There are pockets on the back I don;t even know how you'd reach.

Since the topic of physique came up last thread.

I know they're not soldiers, but this is what the ideal male body looks like.

how do you guys wear a BDU top?

>>13276545

A one-off by arktis. You can still get the Shard parkas though, same pattern as the back there.

>>13279755
http://www.arktisoutdoor.co.uk/B110-le-shard-onyx-black-night

I told you, it was a single hooded jacket they made from spare material. Sold it on their ebay oh I don't know, three/four years ago?

>>13279149
Good to know, I wanted to dye mine as well (I presume yours are the same Swiss model that I own) but I guess I'll have to replace the string first. Or get some older ones with cotton tie strings.

Concerning your fit, I'll try to go into detail because you have potential and I want you to do better: The boots are very nice, no complaints there. Your puttees on the other hand are very sloppily wrapped and the off-colour tie string ruins them. The trousers are fine, if the puttees were wrapped more neatly and all black you would be set up for a very nice all-black fit. So far so good.
The belt I'll go into later.
The top half is also pretty good. Greyish jumper, greenish jacket, washed out colours, not particularly bright nor dark, rounded off with a red hat for contrast. Not too bad. The strong black colour of the gloves clashes with the other colours - it's too strong.
The belt in this case is interesting because it marks the border between two halves that should under no circumstances be combined ever again, itself belonging to the lower half: Think about how good it would look if you wore just a tucked in black turtleneck with those same trousers, puttees (successfully died) and boots - like a playful Mosley, the buckle getting the attention it deserves as the centerpiece of an elegant all black outfit.
Or think about how well the top half of your outfit would work with some coarsely textured brown wool trousers, think Swedish WW2 trousers, onion-dyed, and brown (or green) boots, perhaps even greyish-white sneakers. Less elegant, more of a rugged aesthetic, still very pretty.

As is, you look absolutely ridiculous because you combine two aesthetics that absolutely do not go together, have them meet exactly at the midpoint of your body, neatly separated into upper and lower half and even those halves are sloppily implemented (badly tied puttees, not completely dyed, unnecessary gloves).
Each half sets up expectations that the other contradicts.

>>13279766

Stupid-hatted gas mask boy

>>13279774
The legging with the longer tie was swiss and the legging with the shorter tie is canadian. They both dyed to the same shade, even the tapes ;)

>Puttees
duly noted, I am terrible at wrapping them.

>gloves
They're way too big and my hands were cold. Should've taken them off for the photo but I'll remember not tow ear them outside of typing ;)

>Belt
Agree, I think it is the worst transgression here. I have a simple BW trouser belt like pic relevant which I should have worn - I looked at it and considered it for a moment but passed it over because I wanted to force the tentaclebelt to work.

>green boots
I have a pair of Vietnam jungle boots, are those what you're thinking of?

Thanks for the feedback - I'll keep all of this in mind :)

>>13279553
i'd love to have one but i have no idea on where to find one.. would you be interested on selling me one?

The jacket and shirt look great.

That hat + gloves is full hobocore. If you don't want to look homeless wearing surplus, which already has socioeconomic implications in much of the Western world, don't do that.

Those ankle wrap things look terrible. I doubt there's even a way to incorporate them without looking larpy since they are so archaic.

Your pants also look silly like they're too big for you.

Your belt looks like you stole it off your grandma's dress.

Finally, and perhaps worst of all, your boots look clown-shoe huge compared to your frail childlike figure.

The whole mess combines to make you look like a homeless clown-child with a pretty nice jacket and shirt. Seriously, the jacket and shirt are great, don't change that part. Also is that a Swiss gas mask? It looks cool.

>>13280333
This

>>13280333

>Gas mask
Swedish, 1944. Pic relevant.

>Ankle wraps
Duly noted

>pants
interesting that you should mention them! I think they look much better without the wraps as I've been wearing them in most fitpics and nobody has mentioned them before.

What I did differently this time was cinch the belt megatight to see if it would show off the waist and put the wraps on to try and slim the calves but it backfired badly.

>belt
Think it is a lost cause or could it work with a different fit? It's very 60s

>boots
this is a big problem for me because I'm thin and 5'9 but have slim and long size 10 feetskis.
I try and pick narrow boots with a pointed or slim toebox to avoid getting the bulbey kid-in-dads-boots look but I still suffer from it sometimes.


Thanks for the crits - I will keep them in mind :)

>>13280333

>>13280353
the mask has some sick markings nobody gets to see as well

>>13280098
Remember especially how certain certain textures and saturations clash. You have this problem in other photos, it's just very apparent today because it's so neatly separated into two halves. The BW belt would be even better if it were brown, the buckle is a lot better though because it's warmer in colour. Remember how badly the black / silver colour scheme of your other belt clashed.
Some homework: Read up on the golden ratio, on textile textures and on basic colour theory again, complementary contrasts and such. You're especially troubled by saturation, I think.

>>13280249
Sure, just ignore the guy who keeps saying "just stick with one military piece per fit", he's not from around here. There are of course many ways you could style these sorts of clothes, and there anren't enough women that do. You could go for a vintage pin-up look with the more offficial dress uniforms that are floating around, the classic industrial/hippie alternative cutie look with green parka / field shirt and laced black boots, but my favourite and the one I see most seldom is the utilitarian Kim Possible look with cargo trousers and a simple functional turtleneck shirt. You'll have to be pretty fit for that though. You could also go for the traditional Scandi comfycore look with thick wool sweaters and wool pants, I always thought the Norwegian army sweater would look good on a woman. Varusteleka has a "lot" of women's surplus but you'd probably best try to integrate males' clothes as well, since there is just more, better quality stuff. Just be creative with the resources you have, that's essentially what these threads are about.

>>13280333
Those boots are and slick and narrow and small as fuck. Have you seen other military issue boots? The puttees would be fine if there were dyed and wrapped correctly, no need to break a sweat over looking anachronistic as long as it's in line with aesthetic laws, and the belt problem is the way it is framed, not the belt itself.

>>13280353
Very cool gas mask. My collection is mostly modern to late cold war, but I'm trying to branch into some of the older designs.

I think that belt would be much better suited to a more fantastical style like gothic industrial. It just looks silly with the gritty surplus aesthetic.

And I don't know what you can do about the boots besides lift some weights, so good luck with that.

>>13280365

on the matter of the boots, let me show everyone a few things.

here's how my feet compare to my mainstays

Here's the same pair of Ro-Searches next to a pair of captoed paraboots

I'm sure you can see immediately that despite being the same size, the ro-searches are almost exactly the same size and shape as my feet

>>13279344
shapeless sack of shit with an OK photography skills

Are they still as bulky and weird as you initially thought?

I think it's just the low angle that makes them look so. remember I'm using a shit self timer and taking these myself

>>13280243
They're all over eBay. Just search for "Soviet medic bag".

>>13280365
Now that my boot expo is over

>homework
Will read, but are there any particularly good articles you want me to look at?

>>13280396

>belt
I agree, I do think it was better the other day with the floral shirt. What about if it was with plain black trousers and a white tee?

>mask
Got the mask from Varusteleka when they wre liquidating swedish gear. Arcisa has some complete sets on eBay right now if you want to cop this model ;)

>>13280454
No, no articles. Just read up on aesthetics.
I think there is some stuff in the sticky but a general web search will probably provide you with all you need. Maybe if you know an art student (or art teacher), ask them.

>>13279553
>>13280243
>>13280452

I had one of these and I have something very important to tell you from my experiences:

They do not make the best choice if you want something functional.


The interior has a lot of pockets specifically for medical gear. Other than the ones that fit pens, these are not a lot of use because they are designed to fit specific bottles and have no closure, so your shit will fall out and mix at the bottom of your bag.

Secondly - these are semi hardshell bags to protect the aforementioned medical gear. They have a pressboard inserted between a layer of cotton burlap and shirting materiel. The board warps slightly when wet, and if it is stricken hard enough can break.

lastly and most importantly, messenger bags tend to ride against your body. soft messenger bags merely conform as to your body and ride comfortable.
Since these have hard shells, they slide back and forth.

The achilles heel of these bags is that the bag rides back and forth against your ass and the hard shell means it wears down the fabric on the reverse side of your bag. After about 1Yr of regular use you will have an unpatchable hole due to the confluence of materiel and construction choices.
I would say if you want a half hardshell bag to use some of the time and have other bags to swap out 75% of the time, cop the bag. Otherwise - dont.

>>13280397
wtf.... weird fucking feet dude...

Also I'm not sure if this is worrying or not, but 90% of my photos are done with nothing but some stacked buckets and a 10-second timer.

>>13280450
Never said they were bulky, you're just too skinny. Really it just comes back to the opinion that military stuff, boots in particular, look really goofy on non/fit/ people.
But if you like that look by all means carry on.

>>13280551
You are just wearing random shit and look like a larper. The silhouette is hideous. All you got going for you is photography composition and agreeable personality. Your fits are shit.

>>13277230
>Am I the only one who likes puttees??

I would ditch the belt, gloves, and touque though it doesn't look good

Also I'd untuck your shirt but other than that this is something you could at least walk around in public minus what I mentioned

I'm just glad theres someone else posting besides that cringey greasy haired larp dood/it/thing.

>I can Imagine you were going for something like this?

...and lots of military surplus, lots of military surplus related knowledge, the courage to wear it out in the open and the friendly vibe to not come off as a brutish thug while doing so. And a nice garden.

They could be a bit higher yes, but luckily since its black you dont really notice it that much
I'd suggest using a thicker material for your pants though

Try using a black canvas or black cargo pant and see how it works, also try out some different all black shoes like some all black ski hi's, or converse, or SFB style field boots or something just to see if it would work
Also I think for winter/cold spring you could try wearing an OD shemagh or scarf or something too

I wish Nicholas K still made this jacket..

I like that you are your own mascot, that's good branding.

About the mask & watch - Are you presently in the military? Your ring looks like it may be a unit ring too.

I think you're body affords you a lot of leeway with that you wear - you pull off the untucked tee well.

I'd like to see you try something with your feet. It's hard to tell if you're wearing boots or the low-cut docs, but try something interesting with your footwear or the break on your trousers.

Inspo poster here, I'm not going to argue with anyone because sure, on some level youre all right.

Here's my thinking:
People commonly say things like 'stick to one piece per fit' or 'holy shit you guys looks like cosplayers'.

I think this is partially because those people haven't seen what full kit actually looks like and partially because some of us never look beyond military photographs and real surplus.

If we look at fits where people wore real surplus OR something clearly inspired by a real item of surplus we might learn something. If we never go outside the circle we're also not going to see new content, and this is the reason threads get slow.

We're mostly knowledgeable people who can name a lot of surp by model when we see it, right?
I should be able to trust you to look through the above, see the real items & recognize them and then see the items that are rip-offs or LOOK like a surp item and think ' Oh, that's a rip-off of a model 1987 blahblabah' and then go home to your REAL '87 blahblah and make a fit of it.

>>13282626
Cheers! Need to get a storage rail myself. You could nearly set up a shop brah!

>>13282636
so yeah, I think there's good justification for posting things that are RELATED to our interests. It's only going to give context for how people want to see milsurp and how its translating into fits today.

The other thing is seeing all the shit that doesn't work is ALSO valueable... you're sure not going to make the same mistake as idiot mccamotie did here, are you?

>>13281615
I pity anyone that would mess with the family, I got all the patience and even temper. Besides which I moved away to Birmingham what, seven years ago?

>>13282627
Ah, I think you're giving the show credentials it doesn;t deserve. Allegedly some fucking does go on in the place they put you up in (a Premier Inn) since all the bodies, that's the people in the boxes, are in the same place and it;s amazing how quickly you become friends with a group of people if you're all naked. But in our case we were, you know, all quite right on people. An orgy would have been interesting I suppose but to no real end.

If someone becomes erect they actually have to stop filming because of content laws. Soft is fine but otherwise it classes it as hardcore porn. There's not actually anything sexy about the filming process, it;s all very dry TV production stuff. A lot of standing about. They do give you bathrobes but you stop bothering with those quite quickly since it;s warm enough in the studio.
I don't feel like I missed out on Izzy.

>>13282636
No-one got a right to police the thread one way or the other.

Hah, in the army you wore this shit so much you couldn't wait to get in civilian clothing. Maybe it's just me being an American but you look like some dickhead redneck if you're walking around with camo or load-bearing vests.

Weird to see this stuff spreading to other boards when it was once confined to /k/ many years ago. You can really see 4chan homogenizing in its type of users over time. Everyone is some rightwing angry autistic now. I haven't been on /fa/ in years but its so super weird to see people complaining that clothing isn't actually from the military or whatever, like what the fuck.

>>13282669
Think eating rations is fun because I haven;t had to live off them for three months straight.

America does have more of a hard-on for the whole stolen valour thing. In Europe it's not really a thing.

>>13282664
Heh - I laughed at that bit on the shoe. Not gonna lie, skipped though and was disappointed by the lack of telny.

WHAT PIECE OF MILITARIA is anonybous dying today?

>>13282669
Yeah, I don't have a problem with the inspo.

forgot pic.

GUESS WHATS IN THE POT

x3 sorries for x3 posts

>>13282673
Eh, what can you do. I filmed for Body Fixers but they never used my bit. I don;t hold up well for mainstream television. You had to come up with an answer to the question she asks later, "What statement are you trying to make with your body" or something. Well I came up with "There's beauty in the macabre" (mostly because of the tattoos) but I had to change it to something ten times more trite. I don;t even remember. Basically they stop just short of giving you a script and the way I talk isn't what they want I don;t think.

>>13282676
The adjusters make me think standard US BDU pants.

>>13282681
I will give you a hint - you're correct that it is American. (there goes 2382922189 options for you)

>>13282686
The fabric seems to have a slightly coarse texture, so M1951 wool pants?

>>13282691
WINNER

Yes, I am dying the pair of m1951s that I was wearing in the thread from 4 days ago.

I have 4 pairs so I figure dying the one I ripped the hem out of is not a bad idea.

>>13282608
>We can only hope it;s soon.
Indeed. Can you (or anyone else) think of any capes to look into?
I'll probably wear it around the house when it gets cold, but if they make a comeback I'll take it outdoors.

Poncho villa's tactical poncho

>Poncho villa's tactical poncho
That looks pretty good. I'm in need of a rain coat but maybe that could fill that role.

m1951's came out extremely dark, check out the buttons vs the wool.

WHAT'S IN THE POT NOW, SENPAI?

>>13283029
It's BW moleskine trousers :D

>>13282446
I have been wearing them nearly every day for about a month, and thus far I like them. They are certainly comfortable for walking a lot. I have not had them long enough to comment about durability, but they seem well made.
Does that make them good?
If you have any specific questions I would be happy to answer.

>>13282632
I found it on Amazon

What dye do you use?

I tried dying my memetarn using literally 5 dollar store packs of dye, it all washed off.

>>13283098

use RIT liquid dye.


RIT has two types - standard dye which comes in black and 'RIT Dyemore' which is for combination fabrics (cottonpoly blends)

I use 1 jug of RIT standard black dye w/ 1/4 bottle of RIT Dyemore to tackle both the cotton and poly aspects of the garments.

Typically for a pair of pants I will do 1.5 bottles Standard RIT blakc Liquid dye, 1/2 bottle of RIT dyemore and have good-amazing results.

Cotton takes dye reasonable well but needs to be very worn and washed out/faded before dying.

Wool on the other hand.... I have never gotten any of my cottons as black as my woolens. Pic relevant.

That is cut pretty similar, but the collar is wrong.

who makes the para boots?

>>13283227
pretty sure those are corocans?

>>13283200
Somewhat reminds me of a Swedish M42 tunic.

>>13283227
They're actually Canadian Army paras. I don't think they're corcoran brand but they're very similar, the soles are just EXTREMELY overbuilt

>>13281832

w2c jacket. Anyone got details?

>>13281873

Is this a barbourjacket?

>>13283081
Durability is one of my concerns. The other is if they are comfortable for wide feet, and another is whether they find a good compromise between barefoot feeling and protetction. My Vivobarefoot or Vibram sneakers are too soft and thin to walk all day on concrete in.

>>13283213
Depends on the fit, desu. All black fit (what some may call "fashwave") and it would be more than fine.

>>13283227
I've owned those vietnam era boots, they are waay too bulky and shit looking. The Canadian combat boots are so much more iconic shaped.

I was really lucky to get rid of these piece of shit for $120 USD lol bought them for $20

These are my fav type boots. Sold them for $120 they were womans size. https://i.warosu.org/data/fa/img/0116/36/1471303078739.jpg

>>13283353
They fit much wider in the toes than my other Bellevilles, but also about a half size shorter. The soles are quite substantial, and there is enough room you could wear some pretty thick neoprene insoles if you want more cushion for concrete. They seem well built so I am hoping they hold up, although I have seen a couple reviews saying the soles are prone to delamination around the main flex points.

I'm an American and a commie and I like these threads, largely because I hate buying clothes from sweatshops, it's wasteful and supports filthy capitalists. That said I'm not personally into the camo or tactical vests very much at all.
