Army & Outdoors - Australia

Bought 2 of these pouches as a pair. Both arrived and surprised me with their condition and quality. I received both pouches as the same khaki trim version, with batch 1 and batch 4 for each one respectively. Awesome purchase!

I've bought 3 of these now so suffice to say I like them a lot. I was a little dubious about buying the small size (the only remaining size at time of writing) because the garment measurements are smaller than my actual body measurements, but actually it is a near perfect fit.

I have almost nothing bad to say about them. They should cost more than they do. Brilliantly practical coverall despite how garish they are (which is a matter of taste ultimately). The pockets are huge and the zippers are nice and tough.

The only thing I don't like is the pull strap (visible in product photos). It's stiff and it runs from the arse all the way to the neck (with a zip for your mates to access the handle and drag you around I guess). Considering I'll never need to be dragged out of a tank by my neck I have no use for this feature and it only diminishes comfort unfortunately. Maybe it will soften up with time.

I still rate it 5 stars and think it's a great addition to any Swiss army surplus collection, or just if you need a nice and hardwearing set of overalls. I'd buy the rest of the stock honestly but I have to draw the line of excess somewhere.

I bought one of these because it was slightly cheaper than the $/metre rolls.

I don't see why it's factory seconds. The colours look perfectly acceptable and I noticed no defects in the quality of the product (though I've never looked over it in great detail). I suppose I would need to compare it against a first-grade one. For what it is I can't find any fault in it.

Irrespective of any of that it's a great big net to easily hide under and it's very light. Bulky though, I've never been able to fold it as small as it was when it arrived.

For $37 AUD can't go wrong for over 7 sqm of camo net.

I picked up 2 of these for the cold season. They're brilliant, you just can't go wrong for $9 AUD.
The collar is very tall when zipped and I find the zipper kind of annoying when done up/folded, but I just can't bring myself to complain for the price. It doesn't affect my rating, these are great.

I purchased one of these kits to teach my grandson how to properly maintain his school shoes, and what a brilliant purchase this was. The kit contained 3 serviceable brushes in a sturdy, well-made bag, that provided everything needed to provide the shine to a good pair of shoes. Bonus points: There was even a partially used tube of German shoe polish in the bag!!
As always, the product description was spot on. Yes, the kit was "pre-loved" but by any measure, it was still 100% fit for purpose and well worth the asking price.
Thanks Team, another splendid product that delivers every component as described.

So, it’s an obsolete US LBV when chest rigs are all the rage! But if you’re not a wannabe SF Operator take a closer look:
* Quality. Hey, it’s GI = extremely robust, well made and mine was brand spanking new!
* Price. I couldn’t find anything even remotely close to the price for the quality you get.
* Versatility. OK, so it’s a load bearing vest, but…remove the belt and you’ve got a great battle-belt or re-rig the whole contraption to a chest rig. If you want to use the two parts separately, just add some straps to the back of the vest to replace the belt.
Bummer, just saw they're out of stock so hit that email notification to get yours when this great Kiwi company gets some more in!

Thank you Army and outdoors. My boots arrived today. These might as well be brand new. Definitely recommend them. It might take a bit to break them but worth it. Thank you again.

Had them for a couple of weeks now and they have been great for hiking. Pockets are a great size and they were in great condition.

Really top quality fleece, good zips, and elastic cuffs, double collar, fantastic.

This thing is exceptionally well built and the condition is incredible. The markings on the label date this thing to be manufactured in 1996. It's genuine surplus. Came with the name patches of the soldier who wore it. These things run big too. I bought a large regular and I'm normally an XL in jackets and button up shirts. I'm 6'1 230 Pounds so I'm a big heavy guy and this thing fits me perfectly. Not too small not too big.

PURCHASED A FEW & COMING BACK FOR MORE, GREAT ADDITION TO MY WW2 SAN MARCO MARINES UNIFORM

GOT SEVERAL & RETURNED FOR MORE

A very high quality hydration bladder and pouch. Whilst the pouch was in good condition it had been noticeably used, but the bladder and hose was brand new, still in the plastic!

The great thing about this is that you can either use it as a standalone pack with 3 liters of water able to keep you going for some light hiking or you can unclip the shoulder straps and tuck them behind the pouch itself and use the buckles on each of the corners to attach the pouch to any hiking pack with MOLLE webbing or any similar attachment points. This means you can run the hydration pack on the outside, without taking up any space inside the pack itself!

The bladder itself is very sturdy and the guard on mouth piece keeps out the sand and dirt!

Definitely considering buying another!

Put on my plate carrier, perfect for carrying maps, phone and notepad & pen. Great for any Section Commanders.

Awesome and high quality print. Perfect length and correlation with chest build. Great sleevedom to move around; which is very important.

Highly recommended :)
