Is there any way to get good Kirza Sapogi / Soviet Jackboots without getting rused?

eBay has a lot of boots on sale, but they are mostly from Ukraine. They are mainly a mix of Soviet or Russian or perhaps even Ukranian made boots that range from riding boots, officer, parade, enlisted, and even disgusting current production M-94s with a buckle or zipper. They all come in different heights as well.

I just want good field worthy sapogi that will fit me and goes perfect with the Gimnasterka or M69 regulations.

How about sizing? I wear US 11 / UK 10 / EU 43-44 5.11 boots with socks. Should jackboots be roomy?

Oh good, one of these is up

someone give me the quick rundown on Belgian Jigsaw? What's the good shit to get and where do I get it?

>>34354745
Effective in the same way alpenflage is. The reds work even though they seem like they wouldn't. Use in a wooded environment, preferably in the fall with lots of leaves and other brown things on the ground.

Build quality is top notch. You won't be disappointed. Look up a sizing chart somewhere, I'm not sure how large or small they run. Get one from here or ebay.

And what other gear do the Belgians use as far as chest rigs, maybe even belts/belt rigs. Thinking of setting up a Belgiboo set to go with my Russiboo set

Jackets and trousers probably around $20 +shipping.
No idea what gear they use, there's some random pouches, rucks, and bags floating around and Varus used to have some of the old flak vests filled with mattress foam but they sold out.
I think a lot of them nowadays private purchase Artkis chest rigs and LBVs.

>>34355320
Nice, and sucks on the gear, guess I'll have to dig deeper

Any place where I can find out what sizings they used? A couple places are just showing me L/M/S. Really hoping I can have a set of pants at minimum for next week but it's nbd if it doesn't get here before then

Good luck finding one in your size for less than $50

what is this supposed to mean?

anyways, they seem to all be expensive regardless of size.

>>34355692
I mean they're rare enough that finding a specific size is difficult. Especially for a good price.

>>34355747
if there's no mention of moleskin as its material, is it a fake? like this:

Definitely rust, blood dries black or very dark brown.

Military kit is often stored in crappy conditions (i.e. in a gigantic pile in the corner of some godforsaken warehouse) so it probably just sat on top of or underneath some rusty hardware.

yoiu can look frontowiec or 545-shop up.

As far as i know the finns use "roomy" jackboots, meaning that they use a close fitting sock, and a loose woolsock over that to avoid blisters. But a big problem with jackboots is that you cant adjust them, so if you have wierd feet it can be though to find a proper one

Those are some oddities.
The "Salik" K-Way uniforms were made in France and Belgium, and were used by the French in one airborne unit in a semi-regulated manner, and also by the Moroccans.
There was also a slightly different style/brand used by the Argie's in the Falklands and Irish UN Peacekeepers in Lebanon in the 80's, also in a "semi-allowed commercial private purchase".

Taz 90 is the woodland pattern, taz 07 is the "unofficial" designation for the desert pattern.

>>34386519
Yeah, arktis is 100% fine. It's good stuff, but expensive.

>>34386796
Awesome, thanks man.

What the flip is up with that pocket flap?
Is it a replacement for a torn-off one, or simply a case of the factory not caring?

Man you got the real trousers too, I got the weird parade camo jodhpurs.

>>34388699
Just them not caring. The top pockets aren't even real, at least on mine. They're sewn shut.

>>34388771
What the actual heck? The pockets are clearly there, so the non-functional flaps must be some sort of "muh aesthetics/discipline" thing.

The EDF had a similar practice in the TTsKO era - draftees undergoing basic training had to stitch their pocket flaps shut to keep 'em nice and tidy.

Any of you ginger anon were riding a melbourne tram this morning with a flecktarn parka?

That's pretty neat. Do you have any of your dad's other things or did he have to turn them in?

>>34390223
Anything specific? Long/short, camo/solid, lined/unlined, pocket heavy/simple cut?

>>34390490
Mid length, (No longer than crotch length, so no trench coats), either camo or solid works but camo preferred, and the other concerns can go either way.

British smocks are good. Windproof ones seem to be the most popular, they have hoods that roll up into a nice padded circle around your neck, have a wire around them to hold shape, are good construction and have a plethora of pockets and come in woodland and desert.
They can be found in many places, particularly online like ebay. >>34366307

>>34366307
>>34390562
Looks like a nicer version of Woodland, thanks for the recommendation.
I'd have to get one without the Union Jack though, because fuck the British.

>>34390619
Not all of them have a patch, but if yours does, just take it off.

>>34390455
Standard stuff you've all seen before, MK.IV helmet, 37 pattern webbing, fal mags, leather magazine pouch for the Carl Gustav. All that sort of stuff. I was actually surprised when I seen that particular pattern brought up because for years I thought it was some generic Camo that he picked up over there I had bo idea it was an actual thing.

>>34390778
A uniform? With nametapes/patches?

>>34390793
Yeah, armband with the UN logo and old "Bord Bia" shamrock too. Hes still serving, and so am I. I pretty much hoard gear (which is why I am here)

>>34390834
Have you ever posted before? do you have anything you could sell?

>>34370951
Just make one from a regular jigsaw shirt and DDPM UBACS. Soldiers in Poland do that all the time with their issue shirts and british surplus as we can get a full set of DDPM for like $8-$10.

>>34390857
I post occasionally, I might post up some pictures of some of my stuff tommorow if I get time. And nah I have no interest in selling gear sorry.

I was thinking of getting a helmet.

you guys recommend kevlar or something else?

Are those East German plastic canteens safe to drink from? What about Soviet metal (aluminum?) canteens/flasks, are they safe to drink from?

>>34395363
That really depends on what you want it for.
For affordable ballistic protection, you can't really go wrong with a basic bitch USGI PASGT (just make sure to replace the shitty two-point chinstrap with one of the many aftermarket three or four-point versions).

>>34396372
Good to go, just give the fucker a good thorough wash before using it.

We had beat-to-shit 1960s canteens when I served. They stank like complete motherfuckers and made the water taste strange, but nobody actually got sick.

Opinion time:

I have 50 bucks, I want a medium sized bag for my next few trips innawoods. I've brought an assault pack before, it barely holds everything I need for the 3 days I'm out, even after revising my gear (I bring some camera shit and food).

The assault pack was free and just barely got the job done, so I'm looking back into militaria, and I've got my sights on a German rucksack for 40 dollars, flecktarn, or an American medium rucksack for 50 dollars.

I'm torn because the American one is in ACU which I never liked, but it's the big brother of the assault pack I already like. German one has no frame and is untested by me, so I'm wary. If I can find the medium ruck in a box labeled "free" in some supply cage then I'll take that, but I doubt it.

I know this is more for /out/, and I asked there, but it's slow.

BLEASE HALP

>>34353207
Where is a good place to buy alpenflage?
I'm looking for the overalls, parka, and rucksack combo. I was looking at military supply house but the reviews are low, at least the price is also low.

>tfw had trouble finding milsurp jackets in xl
>go research through sportsmans guide
>they got a fuckload of everything in XL
>mfw emptying my bank account
Here i thought i scoured that place and all their XLs were sold out or something

Two questions for you autists
>Anyone know a source for belgian jigsaw shirts and jackets in XL?
>any way to stretch the sleeves of jackets to make them longer without damaging them too much?

Last question because i got a couple milsurp jackets in Large, they fit mostly just fine except the sleeve is a bit too short when i raise my hands.
Should i just suck it up and deal with it or hand them off to another budding autist.

>>34405852
Fairly uncommon.

>>34405860
Weird, with the amount of assholes here that sell our rare stuff overseas im surprised it isn't more common.

I fuckong hate seeing koevoet and 32 battalion stuff being sold to Americans and Australians

Hey guys I was wondering where to find some decent Rhodesian camo.

Anyone have experience with this website, I want to order something but it seems sketchy.

>>34354347
did they used to do the flags like that?

>>34411710
>http://www.tridentmilitary.com/
Avoid. They haven't been legit since like 2005

They were short of a lot of things at the beginning of the Gulf War.
Lots of guys even had black jungle boots during the beginning of it.

>>34411873
k then, i dont feel like giving my info to a website that looks like it was made in 2002

>>34390619
Use a seam ripper to take off the flag. But remember that you are wearing a British camo.

>>34398121
ACU a pile of dog shit, I'd avoid based on the pattern alone.

Help me /k/, I want to buy Soviet jackboots, but I can't understand the sizing.
My feet are 27 cm (10.62 in) long. There is size US 10 and US 11, insole length of 27.7cm (10.90 in) and 28.5 cm (11.22 in) respectively.

Which size should I get? I haven't worn jackboots before, and I am sure I read somewhere that the boots should be a little loose, though I am retarded to figure that out. I also intend to wear them with portyanki foot wraps if that would make a difference.

>>34412490
