Thread: Euro Miltary Gor-TEX suits

Tell me what you guys think of this gear
I can get it in - it is "used" but I think it probably more like New but out the back of a NATO Wharehouse
German and Austrian Military gear.
Top quality - I would imagine - but I have not laid my hands on any to judge myself as yet - but mother-inlaw will have a Suit tomorrow to appraise and can send over here.
Prob be around 200-250 NZ$$
I know the salopettes are not really a NZ thing - unless you a White baiter or fisher person - but to be honest I a little sick of the tightness of our trouser option with the elastic fix around the pukoo

Its brilliant stuff.

I had a pair of the plain Olive green trousers years ago and my German mate gets the Jacket and Pants combo new from German Ebay.

I need to know prices - before I commit to import in (if you can assist
Mother inlaw getting a pair tomorrow and she will bring over with her at Xmas from Ukraine

Looks like no special Prices in Ukraine looking at those EBay threads
She going to pay more that that indicated on Euro EBay - but it is for 2 piece suit

Yes - I have just seen that too
Will wait and see what the m-inlaw shows on Skype tomorrow

Do you guys think the trousers would be a goer - or just the jacket

I like the bib trou style for farm work

Jackets are O K but too short. Trousers are a pain unless the sides have zips

Do you mean Zipa up th leg for getting on over boots
Also - what I seen on models - the Jackets look not to short

Anyway - mother -inlaw got one for me - - but I dont think they look a good option for reselling - time I pay freight - Duty - GST etc etc
- they be $200 min here

Thanks guys - always pays to ask at the "coal face"

Yeah zips up the legs. I got 6 inches sown on the bottom of my coat or you get wet to the waist when climbing.

Mother-in-law got this suit yesterday.

Apparently - the Jacket is definably Brand New and the pants part is like new.
She said very good quality and fabric seam sealed etc.

Only negative she said was the German emblems - but they can be removed

Cost worked out a little less than expected too!!

So if anyone interested and would be just b4 Xmas delivery 160NZ + PP for full suit.

PS
That is 160$ for the top picture suit - with salopettes.
Can get the other too - but she not seen in her hands to evaluate proper yet

I have had the top set of fleck tarn ztuff for prolly ten years... great stuff. Actual waterproof. Pants are great. Dont slip down. Dont get a wet ass
