I have some ACU from them, not bad for the price but nowhere near the kind of quality as the real thing or even a more expensive repro. The material is really stiff and not very breathable, but for the price it can't be beat IMO

hmmm

I am placing an order for the A.C.U SF V2 uniform by EA and the dummy sapi plates for a display in my store. Now the uniform and sapi plates should come throu the border with no troubles right and the uniform looks solid enough.

yeh if it's for display then they are great, the colour is nice etc. it's just that the material doesn't feel that nice against my skin, or maybe I need to use more fabric softener

Yea the material is a bit stiff and they fit a bit on the short side if you have long limbs.

xl sizes are about 36-38" waist and about 32" length. I am glad i went with xl because as stated they are all smaller than sizes found locally. large/xLarge would be a good fit for your size.. I am 6' and the xl pants could use a bit more length.

Go to your nearest surplus store. It's not that much more expensive when you have to pay for shipping ordering from Ehobby(Not to mention conversion of currency). And you get a much better BDU that way. Propper brand is the best value imo if you are not willing to spend too much.

Usually brand new Propper brand Set goes for $110/set. And you can try it on at the surplus store too!

Remember ACU refers to the CUT of the material (BDU, DCU, ACU) and ARPAT is the actual camouflage pattern

I wouldn't buy fake arpat, it's REALLY obvious if it's fake, real issue arpat ACU's aren't all that expensive anyway when you think about it. Around 100$ for a set of ACU's that are going to last you 4 years or more!
Just follow the washing instruction to the letter and they won't fade

EA really isn't a brand its just the acronym for EhobbyAsia. So all the EA stuff is just random brand china stuff.

Parkland stuff are okay, but still much better than Ehobby Asia stuff.

You don't have to pay or wait for shipping and you get better item for just around the same price. And you also have fit guranteed.

I had to learn things the hard way.
