CAF gear

[daishi]

Hey does anyone know where you can find a decent RCAF* coverall boots and gloves?

I'm looking to buy these items in the next week or two. I'm 6 feet, 38' chest.

As well, whats the modern colour for the jump suit? OD or Tan? I'm looking to put together an outfit for a scenario , so I don't want to spend to much on the coveralls and gloves. Boots I'll dish some money as my old ones are falling apart. So...say less then $300 total?

From what I have gathered the colour is OD, with black boots and gloves. Please correct me if i'm wrong.

*Thanks -Skeletor-

If you could elaborate on the difference between the RAF flight suit and CAF coveralls? Im looking for something authentic or repro...downed pilot scenario. Ive googel'd both of those and they pop up the same images :/

Ahh, my perpetual use of the wrong damn terminologies!

Yes, I mean RCAF, im sorry about that.

RCAF Flight gear is very easy to find and relatively cheap:

Flight suits can be sourced off ebay: Ebay Link

My local suplus store had a whole crate of OD and brown CF Nomex flight gloves the last time I was there. Send them an email and see if they can send a pair out to you: http://www.supplysergeant.ca/

As for boots you can get away with using surplus cadet boots (The new fake leather boots) as flight boots if you're simply going for the look.

Hope that helps!

Thanks for the responses guys!

It would seem hero army surplus has gloves and fligh suits in stock...Ill have to get down there soon!

**edit**

I was able to purchase OD flight suit, foliage green nomex gloves, misc patches for about 120 bucks. Now ill just go to a local store and buy some boots!
