um....looks like they just ran an old uniform throught the laundry until it faded to grayness

1080jibber 06-15-2004 11:27 PM

im not liking it, but it does look like concrete. a new urban uniform maybe?

06-15-2004 11:28 PM

the design looks similar to MARPAT, but what terrain is that horrible gray supposed to blend into oOo:

I suppose they plan to do a lot of city fighting.

ninty 06-15-2004 11:30 PM

Which is exactly what happens with cadpat. You're not supposed to put it through the dryer. I've seen some guys who look like that because the woodland cadpat is so faded.

Anyway, thats pretty cool. I like it.

I wash mine than air dry them, it keeps them from fading, but those look like shit, than again it is the army. eek:

More than likely a snip at 6 billion to develop...obviously never heard of bleach. oOo:

Yeah, I air dry mine as well. Thats what they told me to do when I got CADPAT, but its obvious that some people don't.

Capt. Hiker 06-16-2004 01:58 AM

like they are going to really be able to blend into a forest setting with all that gray, just look at the pic with the trees and whatnot in the background, the guy looks like he had day-glo on against the background
also i don't think it would blend into a desert setting either rolleyes:
hell the desert camo the use now is about useless anyways, just look at all the pics of soldiers wearing it, they have desert camo on but wear green flack jackets and packs and whatnot, you see more green that desert camo
you'd think they would have all the gear in desert camo also, but nope annoy: rolleyes:
this new camo is only good for urban anyways, the marines new uniforms that came out last year is way better than this rock:

Recycled Spooge 06-16-2004 02:29 AM

Is it just me or are these uniforms similar colors to German ones in World War Two?

Capt. Hiker 06-16-2004 02:40 AM

well the German uniforms in WW2 looked way better than this and the Germans didn't have so much damn grey annoy: rolleyes: stupid:
geez the more i look at that pic , the more i get cuss: cuss: mad: mad:

& the helmet, fieldgrau eek: I also noticed some of the caps are very similar.

They should use that invisible cloak thing

Trunks 06-16-2004 01:51 PM

I read an article in a magazine a while back of what the soldier of 2025 was going to look like. Danm, had black helmet, and what resembled a black mtorcycle suit. His gun had a gps and a bunch of other shit integrated into it.

I think so.

Proteus 06-16-2004 02:35 PM

It makes them invisible through night vision.. I'll take it.

ninty 06-16-2004 02:35 PM

Yeah, Cdn government started to develop it a while back. Like 10-15 years ago, and then the Marines saw it and the government told them how to make it. It looks like now the enitre Army will use it now.

Maplegyver 06-16-2004 02:38 PM

we contribute happy:

snipes 06-16-2004 05:40 PM

Yeah looks definetly faded and....do I see white in there? It does kind of resemble the German's uniform during WWII...

06-16-2004 06:51 PM

It cost me $160 for both the pants and jacket.

What sucks, is that I'll need to buy a new jacket soon... I think my current one shrunk a bit in the wash mad:

Zap. USMC 06-17-2004 09:35 AM

Well that just took all the individuality from the Marine Corps. Now we won't know the differenace between the two... oh well.

Milla 06-17-2004 10:34 AM

Yes they will, because we have desert MARPAT and our woodlands are alot darker, ill get some pictures of my uniforms up in a little bit, stand by.

ninty 06-17-2004 10:56 AM

You have both Woodland and Desert mila?

Milla 06-17-2004 11:09 AM

Indeed i do ninty.

[img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/uploads/cammies.jpg[/img]

Woodland

[img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/uploads/cammies2.jpg[/img]

Deserts

[img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/uploads/cammies3.jpg[/img]

Full desert uniform

[img]http://www.movv.com/prvupload/uploads/cammies4.jpg[/img]

Full woodland (And yes i bought black boots because i think they look better in garrison and we can wear them until the end of this year.)

ninty 06-17-2004 11:23 AM

So which do you wear in garrison? Desert or woodland?

And do you have buttons that are undreneath those flaps? I hate those things. Annoying as hell.

They don't give us desert because we really don't need them. Only the guys overseas and on operations get Desert. Garrison dress is woodland and black boots. You can't wear desert boots in garisson.

Milla 06-17-2004 11:25 AM

We wear the woodlands in garrison, we rarley wear the deserts, but in bootcmap we wore them for about 3 weeks of bootcamp while our woodlands were getting the name tapes put on. And in SOI when we have one platoon vs the other one wore deserts (the enemy)
