Fake vs Real MC Retailers

[Gordon]

What about that 100% cotton multicam t-shirt?

Who knows.

I thought multicam only comes 50/50 cotton/nylon twill and higher... the highest is their cordura fabric I believe.

FYI: 204 Tactical and FelixTactik have the same MC for sale in fact prolly came from the same manufacturer so pls stop saying the Felix Tactik\'s MC is made with MC LT version because its not.

If you guys want real CRYE MC expect to pay $150+ just for the top and another $150+ for the pants.

I dont see whats the deal who have fake or real MC. Both Companies is here to support the Airsoft community not to rob them. What about the people who dont make that much money and they can only afford the knock off stuff? Does it make him a better player if his wearing $400 MC BDU\'s? I dont think so.

The Cat told me that his are the same material "specs" as Crye LT but not actual Crye LT. I didn't say it was fake, just repro. (not that you said I did lol).

Hey if it fits your budget, then go for it! It's all for fun. I did see a kid wearing a repro set of HK stuff next to a Dave's set. Noticeable difference for sure. It was like having a set of new ACU beside a pair caked in iraq dust. (which I think looks better, but in this case it was too faded haha).

Well, if The_Cat's BDUs are made out of repro material and not fake stuff, then we have yet another type of material out there. E-bay's HK stuff (Jackals has the shirt, compared it to my DZ Smock and it's quite different, the colours are close but ht edigital fades between colours are much larger pixels), and the material Cat uses is pretty damn close when compared to the Crye material. So looks like three different types of multicam material out there now.

yes I agree too! It's the same as the bad marpat repro vs. the one with the ripstop & globe and anchor...and the real deal itself...

hmm so who do we contact for that pretty good looking MC vest?

:-D

He has 3 different style of MOLLE vest and was working on a plate carrier. All sorts of pouches and will custom make any pouch for your specific needs. We know him from the early days of airsoft in Montreal back in 2000.

I had a product price list from him that I'll try and find for anyone that is interested. He came to see me with his stuff so that I could see and discuss what I needed from him. All the Fastex hardware were bought by me from Supply Captain because I wanted coyote brown instead of black to be installed on my rig.

Oh, ok. I thought he was refering to the cut rather than the fabric. My brother emailed him to ask specifically about the fabric and his reply was, "Actually, all my Crye Multicam gears have been sold, and
I don't have a yard left to make something."
That led me to believe the BDUs were CP imitation cutting (which was obvious), but real fabric. Though, looking back, I guess he didn't really say anything was made out of genuine CP fabric.

The deal isn't with people who have fake/real MC. It's with retailers trying to pass their goods off as something they are not, or making it difficult to tell. I just think it's misleading to call it multicam and then talk about how it's such great camo instead of directly saying 'this is not CP multicam fabric' when asked.

Wow, that rocks. I am definitely interested, so feel free to PM me with that info. You wouldn't happen to know if the plate carrier also fits level III soft armour panels, would you?

As stated above they are real. I have a pair and they are great. Alittle pricey but oh well.... as long as I like them.
