Joseph F. Ambrose is possibly the most effay person to have ever existed.

I'm having a hard time finding deck jackets for cheap. Milsurp goes for 400+ in good condition and around 140+ for ratty or unusual (less desirable) variants. B-3's, G-1's, A2's and peacoats are all had for cheaper, but deck jackets are up there with the rarer shearling bombers (B-6, ANT-2, etc).

Also, M51 fishtails seem sucked dry in the market these days, but M43's are around more.

Yoohoo, I like these threads.

So, am I the only one who wears those merino boxers?

If you’re not going to wear a belt, I’d advise wearing jackets open; either you embrace haphazard shapelessness or you go full Wehrmacht-metrosexual-memester, because no military has actually made battledress that looks decent without rigging to shape it since ww2

put some clothes on

I like the look of this jacket, what is it?

quints confirm, very handsome

Wandervögel aren't military in dress or purpose.

They nail the aesthetic and mindset these threads are about though.

I seriously doubt anyone in this thread shares their mindset and I disagree with characterizing the aesthetic as military.

Czech M85. I seriously love it. I used it almost all winter last year for the New Hampshire winter with just a wool or acrylic sweater for layering. It's fairly lightweight but still warm. If you can, buy one with all the trim included (liner, hood, collar, belt). I've had to re-sew a few buttons on it, but otherwise it's held up great.

>imperialism
>fashionable
haha okay

Go back to play d&d, mattia

Let me elaborate. There is nothing explicitly militaristic about the Wandervogel movement, you are correct. What I have experienced as characteristic for these types of threads however is not all-out militarism ( and certainly not imperialism) but a kind of old-timey romaticism. Most people who post fits in these do not look like fighters or neo-nazis (although these too partake in conversation) but seem to aim at a minimal utilitarian elegance. You're also more likely to see scrawny bearded dreamers like than actual soldiers, although these too are present and very engaged in discussion. All around these threads are kind of a hodgepodge of people who want to look tough or masculine, who want to evoke some kind of romanticised past, who want to dress in a practical manner, who want to express their love for Death In June and neofolk, etc. Obviously Wandervögel are not relevant to the actual military faction but they are very relevant to those who dream of a past more in tune with nature, who in militarist aesthetics express their longing for a Männerbund in some form or another, or who express their sympathies for certain post-industrial countercultures that are directly inspired by the movement. Wandervögel also on the one hand serve as the prime example of a style into which military pieces can be seemlessly integrated, on the other hand as an exemplary lifestyle of strong masculine bonds, proximity to nature, physical activity and philosophy that the different factions present itt can agree on. The faction that wishes to present themselves as "intellectual adventurers" (to quote a series of threads that melted into the milspo/freicore/putteecore discourse) is probably the one closest to the Wandervogel aesthetic.

You pain me deep inside.

Pakols are great and you should own one.

those man tiddies

How do I get a shirt like the one on the left with that big collar?

Tight commando jumpers.

now he's effay

I bought an M36 greatcoat, and it actually fits pretty well without a belt. The half belt in the back cinches it up nicely around the waist. Probably not very Veeky Forums, but when it hits - 30 I don't really give a shit lol. It's warm and that's good enough.

Massively so, you'd have to be of an age though.

Thank you for this elaborate answer, I can certainly see your point about the Männerbund and masculinity, I believe that is the driving force behind the appeal of "milspo", but if you look at the content that other people post you also find modernism and materialism prevail over romanticism. Wandervogel movement is in many ways conservative, it's close to nature, it's idealistic, emotional, sometimes homoerotic or at least homoromantic. The sort of image I see portrayed here by the neck beards and the faceless is really not that.It's more of an attempt to look masculine without wearing a tie, the emphasis is on Männer, not on Bund, no one is seeking pre-industrial glory. The neofolk type posts are in the minority. It's more martial industrial, if at all and completely stripped of any Völkisch elements or national traditions.

you have low standards

low standards for what

you fucking nailed it

I’ve also seen partisans and citizen soldiers in general as the real ideal; the spanish civil war and all its effay glory in particular comes to mind, even if the kind of fighting that actually happened was garbage

EMU'D

well.. let's change that
also, isn't Veeky Forums itself a kind of mannerbund experience?

my grail
why was I so poor when they sold these?
I cry every time

Is this the australian version of cuckoldry?

I'm here for the wool porn. Why are you here?

Veeky Forums is really lacking when it comes to singing folk songs around the camp fire and secret hand jobs in hay barns. It's all too impersonal.

Telnyashka, what's the one on the top, third from the left?

Nobody is actually sure. It's either Egyptian, Saudi or Omani.

What's your jeans size?

Uh, I don't know about jeans specifically, but I'm up to like a 33-34" waist over the past few years.

nyahska do you even speak russian bro

takoj nyashka

What's the problem?

you don't scare me bully

Well bully for you.

What's the most fashionable Telny? I want one to wear as a sort of funky undershirt, I imagine it's either blue or black.

That's like, up to you man. Personally I like the reds, but orange is the rarest.

What branch is orange from? Blue is navy, light blue is paratroopers, green is border guards, black is marines, red is interior or whatever? any other colours?

Smokejumpers. Other emergency teams probably use it too but I've never seen or found a picture. The dark red is OMON, the paramilitary police lot. The scarlet red is whatever the MVD is called nowadays. Russian organization is vague and ever changing.

Black was retroactively decided to be submariners, but it was the original marine colour, yes. They wear the dark blue now, and airborne VDV have the light blue.

Hmm, I guess blue is probably the best in terms of being a basic fit, and the black second best. the rest would require some work to make a good fit.

Any of them probably work with a pair of jeans, anything more and it's just colour matching with unpatterned pieces.

OI MATE HAVE YOU GOT A LICENSE FOR THAT HELMET

I love telnyashkabro
