My shirt is from epic and is fairly good. It is a wool/poly mix rather than wool/cotton. But does at least have some wool in it unlike the ones I saw at the SoF stand earlier in the year.
My water bottle and medic pouch are original. They're available at most militaria fairs. The repros seem okay(ish) from what I've seen.
My trousers are from wwii impressions. They're very good but reasonably rare and expensive. The SoF ones I've seen are shite, be prepared for a split crotch. Dunno about the Epic ones.

HBTs are comfortable, wools are more accurate... your choice!
What Size are you? I can ring them up and find out for you whether theyve got all the bits and how much etc. Theyre not a conventional store in the sense that they dont have a computer system or credit card machine.
no credit card machine!! wtf!! cash and cheque???
Cash and Cheque, theres a cash machine about 100 yards up the road so it doesnt bother me either way really.
