Next purchase: BDU!
So I got a nice Condor Chest rig from my son for Father's day, and now we are both in the market for BDU. I haven't seen much in local stores so far, so am looking online. Of course the problem with buying clothing online is not being able to try it on, and not being able to look at the manufacturing quality.
We are considering the Emerson G2 gear that Airsoft Depot is selling. does anyone have this stuff and can comment on fit and durability? Any suggestions of brands to look for or avoid? |

How much sand CAN you fit in your vagina!?

Same, avoid TMC, Emerson, etc.
UR-Tactical is the best bang for your buck by far, as they are nearly as good as the best of the best, but way cheaper. Another option is to go into DS Tactical in New West and check out their stock. They always have some good stuff.

We almost went to DS tactical today, but had to get my son to his hockey game. They don't have a lot of BDU listed on their website, and I recall the last time I was there they had a lot of very expensive brands like Arcteryx. Will have to check it out. Do any local retailers handle the UR Tactical stuff?

I've never had a problem with my emerson gear. MC and Atacs.

I've seen sets of Emerson and similar tear first day, usually starting with the crotch. Also they fade quickly. UR-Tac is only available through their website. Though they have several variations, they certainly aren't cheap, though much cheaper than the big boys like Crye, etc.
Unfortunately BDUs are one of those items where you buy cheap, you buy several times, or you can spend the cash and they'll last you years with a far superior product. DS will have some Tru-Spec and VertX, which are just fine, but yes the Arc'Teryx stuff is ridiculously expensive.

tru-spec or propper is going to be your best bet for low cost/high quality material

There's a couple local stores that carry Propper, but I find them way over priced. For an extra $50-ish per set and some shipping costs you get a product that is 10x better. But budget is budget, and there's always other gear you'll need eventually as well.

Semapo Gear is also a good choice aside from UR Tac.
I don't particularly like the arm pockets on the UR Tac shirts and I find them a bit on the baggy side, whereas Semapo fits slimmer.

A great, cost effective option is surplus British MTP. Easily available, reasonably priced and well made.

Also, if you do go to UR, they have several variations of their gear, so they have really expensive to reasonable, so check them all out. Also, grab camo that functions over fashions. They have many great choices. Multicam is the classic choice and won't let you down, as it can be used everywhere and there's tons of gear available everywhere that matches.
