Can anyone recommend a reliable website for milsurp stuff, like, say gloves, hats, etc?
Also, what militaria have you found most useful outside of the military? For me, it's snivel gear, especially field jackets, fleece neck gaiters, jeep caps, and the black leather gloves - usually the unlined gloves. The latter is the one I'd like to find a source online for. I just realized I've been wearing the same pair every winter for the past 25 years. They're holding up really well, but I figure it's just a matter of time before they wear out, or I lose them.
I also have managed to find a couple of the brown, wool/cotton thermal shirts, which I sometimes wear when it's well and truly cold outside. They're more breathable than the newer stuff.
