Where can I get issued MARPAT BDU's?

Postby shakespeare » Tue Aug 17, 2010 3:19 pm

It is my understanding that the issue MARPAT BDU's are more durable and fade resistant than Propper digital woodlands. Where are these available for purchase online?

I'll have to check out the surplus store in medford, the one I know of in Grant's Pass only carries the not official stuff. Thanks.

Honestly im not sure if you'll find issue MARPAT in surplus or good will. See if anyone can get it on a base for you, but they dont come cheap. I got mine for 60 dollars

I thought it really isn't a good idea to wear issued BDU's if you weren't actually a Marine. Am I wrong about that?

There's nothing really wrong about wearing issued BDU's. If you're out there to make Marines look like idiots then yes, I know Jebus wore several issued marines items and no one was irritated.

Just make sure to take off the U.S Marines name tape, and any active duty patches. The uniform isnt the issue, its just the stuff on it.

All my gear is issue. If I'm going to do a kit based off of a group of individuals like the USMC, I'm doing it right.

Aloha Surplus in Aloha west of Beaverton has tons of millitary issued bdus and a lot more, they are not the cheapest but they have the real things.

I found a set of DWC pants and shirt for under $30 on a site called HobbyDrive. It says the page is unavailable right now so I can't link to it, but if MARPAT and DWC are the same thing then its a great deal. I spent $30 on woodland pants alone at the surplus store outside of medford.
This is my signature. Hear it roar.
