Cadpat-clothing market today (following to frontenac cadpat)

[panzergrenadier]

you might be right...

[panzergrenadier]

ah ok... that's pretty damn close to the issue stuff...
you're right. Only difference is the pockets really

[Hades]

Dropzone Ops BDU's are expensive but goddamn they are so nice. Breath great in the summer and well built. Because they are 100% nylon they dont stay wet for very long and dong get soaked in sweat either not to mention the ammount of pockets is good too. Deffiently worth it in my opinion.

I'm understand your opinions over Parklands cadpat, but because it does not exists a good and cheap brand I'll have to sew me a own of real cadpat-material ^^

But still I think a Parklands Cadpat works for me because I will not use it very oft , but the supposition to buy a parkland anyway is that new Jacket + Trousers don't cost more than $50. Anyone who know a seller that can offer that price?

Look at it this way, would you rely on a pair of gotch you paid $1 dollar for out of the bargain bin at giant tiger/ dollarama/ bargain store/ sann/ red apple/ etc. to last you as long as a 10+ dollar pair?

I know what I'd trust to keep my balls comfortable in... Sure, you can buy 10 pairs, but that one 10 dollar pair will outlast every single one of those 1 dollar pairs by months.

Anyone who has a pattern if I would like to sew a BDU with Cadpat-material and not buy the "bad" parklands?

[Drake]

If you want to make it like Frontenac's (the old ones) just get a set of ODs (about $5 at surplus stores) and use the exact same pattern. You can even canibalize the buttons off it.

How about you just save your money and buy something workable instead of trying to build an entire BDU yourself? Seriously, if $120 for clothing is too much for your budget, you're playing the wrong sport.

Also - please fill in your profile information.

[daperahl]

How popular and used are the parklands cadpat and when it is so bad, why does they continue to sell it?

People will buy anything once. It's cheap and readily available so people buy it.

Fill out your profile please.

[daperahl]

But which seller here in Canada is the cheapest for parklands?

[CDN_Stalker]

Oh boy, here it comes. Gonna put on my NOMEX flightsuit now, this isn't looking good.

[max.power]

Just to put an end to this thread, and try and save you some flaming, I'll lower my CADPAT price to $100 a set plus shipping.

Seriously, please stop asking about parklands.

DUDE. GET IT THROUGH YOUR HEAD. WAKE UP TO REALITY. YOU WILL NEVER SEW YOUR OWN BDU, EVEN IF YOU DID BY SOME MIRACLE SCRAPE TOGETHER THE LIFE SIZED INVESTMENT OF $100 AND LAY HANDS ON THE MATERIAL. THE MATERIAL WILL END UP GATHERING DUST IN YOUR CLOSET OR PERHAPS MAKE A NICE BLANKY.

STOP ASKING ABOUT IT, WE ALL KNOW YOU WILL END UP BUYING IT.

ANNOYING YOU HAVE BECOME.
