my vote is for MARPAT. but i realy like the specops woodland digi, it is more suited for the woods.

MarPat is definitely the best pattern for this part of the country as far as I am concerned.

Obviously most people on this forum agree since it was voted the official N.E.O.S.M.U.T. Uniform. But I really do like the comparison Ring, I have been meaning to do a similar comparison but you beat me to it!

That is a really good price. But you will never catch me buying used BDUs anymore. They just get too abused from paintball as it is. I have seen in the past, some used ones for dirt-cheap at the surplus stores that actually have stitching in the knees and crotch area.

I have a surplus store two hundred feet away from my work. Last time I checked out their BDUs out of curiosity, I got sick to my stomach from smelling some really strong and nasty body odor.

Ok, that was disgusting. lol made me a little sick because I have done the same thing, (went looking for bdu's at a thrift store and the smell detured me from them....far from them) The BDU's that I use, I had my brother pick me up a set at the BX on base. Cost $50 for full suit but the prices are droping due to the fact that the military is switching to Digi camo in 2010 I think, possibably sooner. So new BDU's will drop in price big time.

It doesn't matter, I am not trying to be a snob, but just so you know it is PX not BX (Post eXchange).

I think the Military is already on the digi patterns, but it may btake until 2010 to complete the transition.

Either way the prices MilSim Products has on the BDU's is really tough to beat. Especially when John runs his specials on them.

As for Army Surplus store BDU's, no way! Do you know what we do to those things, sweating and crawling through the dirt. BDU's are the most abused piece of clothing on earth!
