Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire 30% Off, Plus Free Shipping, on 100% Cotton Ripstop BDU's from PROPPER

I live in these things.


They are hands down the most comfortable work/utility clothes out there.

Light weight, fast drying, wind/bug proof, wear like iron.


And, at $49/set (w/ hat) delivered? they are a steal.

Coupon Code: BLACKTAC


Propper® Boonie - 100% Cotton

Propper® BDU Coat - 100% Cotton Ripstop

Propper® BDU Trouser Button Fly - 100% Cotton Ripstop



Consider the M-65 field jacket as well...

MilSpec 50/50 NyCo sateen cloth w/ DWR.


Propper® M65 Field Coat


Great for motorcycle riding, too, because they are 100% windproof and the sleeves are long w/ velcro closures.

Comes w/ the quilted "smoking jacket" button-in liner.

For $60...?

These are mil cut - so the hats run small, the Blouses run a little big, and the Trousers are blouse length.

Check the fit chart:

They're about all I wear.

I just wish the OD Green was ACTUALLY OD Green. Not blue-green, spruce green, or mint green. I haven't been able to find anything that was real OD Green in many years.

Yeah, it's a little greyer than Mil OD.

I alternate OD/Khaki, Khaki/OD blouses and trousers, and they pair up pretty well, bein' earth-tones.

Will also have a set/ea. of mixed Woodlands - (WP/Kh, OD/WP), which gives me four wear sets, or three (2-OD/Kh, 1-Kh/OD) sets and a full WP set for the field.

Wash'em in SPORT WASH which keeps the UV brighteners out of'em as well as any perfumes, so even the OD/Kh sets can go into the field.

Good info.

The $30/Ea. base price is still pre-inflation old.

And they didn't charge Sales Tax, either... which is like another 10% off.

Sweet deal.

cotton is rotten

Ok for mowing your lawn in July or riding a camel in Qatar

This is 100% ripstop cotton.

Like board cloth - no fuzz.

Wear'em in:

- town, because they are comfortable, light weight civies.
- the desert, because they cool by evaporation.
- the swamps, because they are bug proof, don't hold heat, and dry quick.
- the Winter, as a windproof shell over flannel shirt/sweater/sweatshirt.
- the snow, as a shell that doesn't hold water, over insulated layers.

Literally Live in'em year round.

These 100% Ripstop Cotton BDU's were also adopted by the new Army Jungle School in Hawaii.

How do these compare to Duluth trading co? Thier are heavier 11 oz vs 6 oz. price is about the same?

Don't know anything about'em.

The thing about these are that they ARE light, but woven extremely tight, so it acts like a nylon windbreaker cloth.

And the double elbows/seat/knees are a big plus.

Have yet to tear one on a dirtbike motorcycle spill.


Am getting ~ 3 years out of three sets/wk wash-n-wear year round.

So ~ $50/yr clothing allowance.

These were also USMC issue in the 80's as well...

Looks like good stuff, but................


Website says "Imported". If you're wearing them, there should be a tag stating where they were made. Would you be willing to tell us what that tag says? Some countries I will buy product from............................others................not so much.

were the Marines wearing "Imported" uniforms in the 80's?

Was referring to 100% Ripstop Cotton BDU's.

Propper - is a Mil uniform contractor.

Current commercial manufacture is in the Dominican Republic - to Milspec.




GR

Is Bin ok with you advertising on his gravy train?

Don't know what you are referring to.

I'm just pimpin'em... because I like'em.

Have no affiliation w/ either the outlet or manufacturer.

(which, in this case, happens to be the same, though I usually get'em from another store.)

This is just a sweet deal on'em.

I’m just looking out for the big guy.

carry on

We’ve had Malaysian bots come in and carpet bomb the place with black friday garbage links before.

Marcellus Wallace don’t like nobody foucking him except Mrs Wallace. 😄

Thanks,

looks like a lighter alternative to the Wrangler Riggs I normally wear.

If you aren't familiar w/ 100% ripstop cotton BDU's... because of the tight weave, they're actually a little stiff, like a very thin canvas.


What's neat is the way they wick moisture.

Put a drop of water on them, and it will slowly spread out into an ever increasing damp spot... and then vanish.

... like a magic trick.




GR

Thanks.
