antz wools- our opinion

We have some of Pirchens uniforms in stock £85 a set we got them as samples with a view to replacing our existing stock but were not happy with the cut at all, we tried them at a couple of shows and they didnt fit anyone, too short and too tight, the dimentions are all wrong. We have stuck with our original manufacture whos wool tunics are a more forgiving cut longer in the body and criticaly wider round the waist.

I know some members prefer buying from Asia but bear in mind if you buy from us we reward loyalty, some forum members buy exclusivley from us and over time make significant savings, rather than buying bits from all over they come to us and get a discount every time. We have everything bar some original items, but these can be got from other dealers ( i would recommend R Underwood for original fieldgear).

New items in for winter

Planetree zelts, new print, same as our smocks, hard to beat £45
Planetree helmet covers 1st pattern, same as above £16.99
Grey parkas ( much better than sturm ones) £60
Strum oakleaf parkas £50
M36 tunic and trousers sets, good wool and a very nice early shade of fieldgrey, slightly darker and less green then later examples, very good cut which fits most if not all body shapes. £85
All leather jackboots with studs ONLY £70
officers jackboots, high shaft leather sole £80

Sorry to hear that, I had both officer's uniforms custom made by him , and found them to fit fine apart from small necks/collars .

Feel free to delete this post if you don't need a debate Anthony :D :good:

note we are talking about off the peg field uniforms not custom made items.

Like i said we were going to stock his wool stuff, and sell for approx same price as him but the cut is wrong for most body shapes, tends to suit the shorter build, we know because we had them at the war and peace show and market tested them, not knocking Pirchen, i knew him before he did uniforms but from what we discovered at the shows they were difficult for us to sell , hence we have put them up here.

we have antz M36,M40 and M43 available but only limited sizes.
