So I guess it pays to go window shopping for gear occasionally. lol.
I was in my local surplus store in Fredericton (Family Outfitter on the Hanwell Road for you locals) and found a table full of Boonies and caps for $10 each plus tax. ($11.50 total.)
They had "US GI" boonies (knockoffs I'm sure) in MARPAT woodland and MARPAT desert patterns, as well as the "old school" type camo in woodland, desert and urban. A few caps in OD (no OD boonies, though) --he told me that it's the young girls that come in for the OD caps... must be a fashion trend or something... anyway... can't recall if he had any CADPAT or not... I'm going back tomorrow to get another, I think.
It's most likely not the real deal (I'm pretty sure the owner told me up front that they were all knockoffs) but they seem to be well made from decent material (65% polyester, 35% cotton) - but you can't go wrong for $10 plus tax, eh?
