Green or Tan?

Where's a good place to get them?

Cheers

Proper ones are a sort of greeny tan colour... heh... sort of KG3... :)

Militaria fairs are the best place to get real ones... I think SOF and WPG have some as well... they may or may not be real.

WPG apparently do them.

It was a shortage on my last order, and the one I had ordered for the weekend, so my head would be slightly warmer then if only covered by a beret, arrived today.

Only they sent me a wool scarf by mistake. :evil:

Which I already have :evil:

An itches :evil:

Are you sure its not actually a cap comforter?

A cap comforter is actually a tube with both ends sewn up. It can also be used as a scarf. Is it possible you've got that mixed up?

You turn half of it inside out to make a bag and the roll up the edges to make a hat.

Well the 'what we are sending you' is invou=iced as a cap comforter, but the invoice that arrived lists it as 'wool scarf'.

Unless they are one and the same thing and I am a total Idiot? :shock:

They are listed separately on the sight too...

Is it a tube sealed at both ends? If it is then it may well be a cap comforter... :)

Well I have put it on my head and it looks like the pictures I have seen of people in cap comforters. :oops:

Now I have to live in shame an ignominy... And the man at WPG is going to be scathing to me in his reply :cry:

Goo old yith, sorts out all my problems :good: :oops:
