You God, regret not saving up for the sapogi now, but alas

[Nipplestockings]

Oh look, another American that jumps on the bandwagon of 'LOL I KNOW NOTHING BOUT NAPPY PERIOD SO THEY ALL FARBS'

You got one thing right - you guys do look pretty nappy. Jk jk. Napoleonic reenacting does look kinda funny sometimes though, I can't lie. I wouldn't say farby though, just a little difficult to pull off well.

Except the Germans. They had a high tailor standard. You've been looking at too much soviet crap buddy.

Heh exactly half  I will admit, the Germans look fucking awesome, but most of the allied groups look like a pile of shite

[DeoVindice61]

Yeah the Americans carried a long tradition of putting all energy to win instead of design. It's like "were the army and were here to kill the enemy that's it".

Appealing to some folks. Non appealing to others.


In short, "Murica".

At least they don't look like peacocks during mating season.

Soviet design logic pre-1943:

"Is cheap? It will do."

Soviet design logic post-1943:

"Remember how cheap our Tsarist uniforms were? Do them but more red Tovarish!"

[Vincenzo]

They dont look that terrible...  I find the Soviet WW2 uniforms pretty ok..
