I'm gonna start dumping a bunch of milspo pics I have laying around in dedication to the most superior men's clothing style. Military-inspired pieces embody a sense of discipline, duty, and masculinity that many people lack or otherwise seem to look down on these days. They also are some of the most practical kinds of clothing, that will serve you well in both urban and rural environments--with some even using tech(ish) materials like ballistic nylon, merino (or other wool types), goretex, etc. There's a fine line between "I like military surplus" and "I'm a poser faggot who doesn't care about stolen valor laws" though, so you need to figure out how to incorporate these pieces into your own personal style.
Some of the pieces and fits I'm going to be posting may bleed into the "outdoors" or even "streetwear/techwear" styles a bit. So don't get pissy with me for not being a purist, you sperglord piece of shit.
These boots are from All Saints I think.
There seems to be two main schools of milspo: one which takes its inspiration from more modern (post-WWII) military style, and that which takes it from WWII and before as seen in this picture.
I like this variation though. Feels comfy
Dressing like you belong in a trench trying not to die from poison gas is a bit hard to pull off. I don't know anyone who wears puttees irl. Some outdoorsmen still wear gaiters on the regular, but puttees are outdated.
Here's another piece that you will never ever wear in real life without people laughing at you.
Except for a halloween party. But let's be honest here, none of you gaybois, manlets, and ugly freaks go to parties.
Here we have the classic black-dyed German memetarn parka because posting basic shit like this is the only way to get you people to respond to my thread.
All the normies make fun of you at school and it's time to make them pay. Buy this overpriced ballistic vest with MOLLE webbing system and magazine pouches for the ammo you're going to be using as you practice your room-clearing technique. Some of you guys are alright.

Adding some nice raindrop camo pants.
>>12411362
The cool thing about raindrop camo is that it was designed to circumvent more primitive night-vision systems. Of course, modern systems are much better and the pattern won't help against them though.

This jacket is fucking sick, can anyone shed some more light on it? Camo pattern? Similar jackets? I doubt there's anywhere I can buy one of these bad boys.
>>12411411
Not the person who posted it, but that's definitely a WWII German Wermacht jacket. I'm not sure what it's specifically called though. You can probably find one with relative ease online but the condition and price might be more questionable.

Totally agree with you. It's best to try and limit your fit to having two military or military-inspired pieces maximum. Maybe even just one if the other is not subtle.

Getting some merino puttees might work, but most puttees are made out of material that is relatively thick because it has to be abrasion resistant. I don't know if anyone is making them out of wool (merino or not), but it wouldn't be hard to make your own.

What is Knoch?

Was looking for either the moleskin or denim ones which occasionally appear on Grailed and eBay

There's a guy who offered me a denim one on grailed for $300:

Thanks for the heads up but I've seen $15 on some surplus sites. I was checking out jackets on Sportsman's Guide and they had them listed with an expected in store date in August. Since I live in MN, I intend to go to the warehouse store and have them pull one and if it doesn't fit, get another size.

They have this, which is the same other than it doesn't have goodyear welt, basically they could only make very few of them at a time because they are made in Estonia and are pretty high quality and they always sold out instantly. So they made new model, without goodyear welt so they can make them in bigger quantities and faster and it's produced by new company.

It could, though varusteleka has pretty good reputation and from what I have heard, their own brand stuff they offer is very good quality, lot of the item descriptions on their site tell the process behind creating the items, the inspiration etc. I'm sure the new ones are good quality as well, but the old ones are definitely better.
And the leather is holding up really well, been using them innawoods and shit and given them heck a beating but aside from scuffs here and there, the leather and the soles feel sturdy as shit still.
