I'll second that. I've never had an issue with them. SOME of their wool stuff is suspect,but they have decent camo. Especially the luftwaffe splinter B.

Their shirts are excellent,as are their tropical items.

Their army bluses on the other hand have recieved nothing but compliments from reenactors. It is more correct than the sturm wool. Wool during wartime was not as rough as reproduction tunics. My original M36 tunic and M40 tunic are soft and not "frilly" and itchy like repro wool. Spearhead is the most accurate next to a converted swedish tunic.

I bought a Mackinaw from them last year. (there old run), and I only have one complaint. the color is very yellow, and the shell is very thin cotton poplin, not cotton duck. Is warm, and the wool is great, but the shell fabric sucks. I can't say anything about there HBTs, or other stuff. but is fairly decent.

A better overall color shade than the much more expensive set I got from WW2 Impressions.

I am going to try to scrape mine down with a razor to get the friz off and make it look older.
