Italian Marines BDU's
 

A month ago an Italian fellow by the name of Paolo "mctaz" posted on these boards looking for some Canadian taped buttons. I had a bunch of old OD uniforms I hadn't turned in yet, and since they were gonna go right in the garbage bin, I stripped off all the buttons and sent them his way. All I asked for was to send me a envelope back covering my postage.

What he sent me back was a set of Italian Marine combats! These are totally worth a "basement commando" shot;

What a great guy eh? Props to you Paolo!

lookin sexy reashore !

Do they come with pasta stains?

LOL! hahahah....

Where did you purchase that BDU from or is it customely tailored?

Very nice, and DEFINATELY rock on McTaz. Good on ya for sure man. And nice score Kokanee

VERY cool! Looks almost like a multi-cam type pattern and some similar shading on them. So which pocket does the wine flask go in?

I would imagine that it would be really effective around this time of year out west, or in heavy forest, with a bit of snow on the ground, but still lots of colour showing...

here you are Morb;

That's one of the shoulder pockets - you could fit a yugo in it!

The jacket as mentioned above has nice big shoulder pockets and a front rank tab.

The trousers are pretty much a USGI BDU pattern, except they are not baggy at all, as most european uniforms tend to be cut finer in the leg.

Interesting it has white in it's pattern! Cool concept, adds the "light seeping through leaves" effect to it.

looks good. i can see us using that bdu here.

I've always been attracted to the Italian Marine uniforms. The camoflage has to be one of the coolest in Europe!

Yeah - those are pretty cool, but you should also see the new camo of the Italian Army.

I like it. Jungle Stalker reborn!

I wouldn't mind some of that Italian Army stuff. Anyone have a beat of whether and where you can get it?

Well...Italy comes to mind ;-)
