Canada’s Eco-Friendly Machine Shreds Worn-Out Uniforms
Saturday, February 29th, 2020Checkered Chest Rig
Saturday, January 4th, 2020After our recent story about the Mixed Media Utility Vest, we realized these fashion pieces are quite popular amongst readers like tylerc. So when we ran across this chest rig, it was an automatic share.
This chest rig is “perfect for a hike or music festivals” where you might need quick access to your snacks. Made from 100% polyester, it features hook and loop closures. Although we don’t have good photos of the rear, it is adjustable.
In Red Check Camo in case you are undercover in an Italian Restaurant.
Get yours while they’re on sale from Verishop.

What’s Old Is Trendy Fashion – Landlord Mixed-Media Utility Vest
Wednesday, November 6th, 2019
Hip Hop fashion brand Landlord has created this abomination, their “Mixed-Media Utility Vest”
Which is obviously based upon the US Issue Tactical Load Bearing Vest, originally designed in the 1980s.
Apparently, designer Ryohei Kawanishi had the idea to make a Beige/Burgundy/Teal version of the TLBV in Houndstooth weave Wool and Nylon mesh, set off with Gold-tone hardware. At least he went with the more modern Enhanced design with mesh panels. Imagine the heat from all of that Wool.
Just in case you want to fit in at the next dance battle, you can get yours for just $600 from ever-so-trendy Barney’s.

Redpath Notions – Hawaiian Plate Carrier
Friday, October 26th, 2018We received a cool note the other day:
“Longtime follower here. I’ve been religiously following your blog since its inception when I was still in high school. I thought it would be cool to show you a product that I have been working on. This product is a Hawaiian themed plate carrier.
Why?? After seeing Hawaiian themed combat shirts, I felt like I could take things up a notch and make the carrier itself out of Hawaiian themed fabric. This was a fun side project and I’ll be making more in the near future.”

What is The Air National Guard Trying To Say?
Sunday, August 12th, 2018
This Air National Guard photo by TSgt Daniel Ter Haar, was intended to inform Guard members about the upcoming switch from the Airman Battle Uniform in Digital Tiger Stripe to the Army Combat Uniform in the Operational Camouflage Pattern. If a picture tells a thousand words, this one didn’t transmit the intended message.
