Im making low budget ww 2 film, I do have a ton of knowledge on ww2 but not alot on where to buy clothes and gear thats cheap. Im not making a full kit, just basic clothes and some gear as long as it looks pretty official. The gear doesnt have to be period items Im looking for knockoffs and look alikes so i can trash them. Well any help will be nice. Also please dont turn this into a flame war somehow.

If by 'clothes' you mean uniforms.....Chinese repros are fairly cheap these days.

nimlas is right, I'd go with chinese repros because they look good enough for a low budjet ww2 movie and you wont spend a small fortune on them.

I'm willing to act also. Actually I'm trying to write a story right now and make a movie about it as my senior project next year, it's going rather slowly. It's about the Vietnam war, not ww2 sorry.
