Gateroom (out in style) package arrives..
I ordered through the Gateroom, a pair of BDU trousers, standard mission cap, and black T-Shirt. I think I placed the order on Wednesday last week. I got the package this morning. Very quick turn around!
I've not looked at them closely as yet, but everything looks very high quality.
I'll post a little review of these parts of the costume once I've had a chance to look at them in detail. However, I will say that if you go for the G8 flight jacket from Silvermans, the BDU pants that I bought from a local Army Surplus store is a better match for colour.
Well, after a little look last night I can conclude the following :
Very high quality merchandise! No doubt about it. And shipping times were pretty hot too, about 3 working days.
The cap is spot on! Very nicely shaped and put together.
The Black T-Shirt is well made, but nothing to write home about (or post about) I'd just get one from Blighty if I were you.
BDU Trousers are very good quality...however, as I mentioned above, not a great match for the Alpha G8 Jacket. However, I will probably get the "slouching" jacket from the same source, and I assume that will match nicely. For now though, I'm going to stick to the BDU trousers that I got locally.
All in all, very nice stuff! Just make sure that if you order, you select the correct colours!
