Hi!
I'm István Péntek, from Budapest, Hungary. I'm a group member of the Hungarian 101st Airborne Division 506th Easy Company Re-enactor and Airsoft Team. I have a question for you: Which is the best M42 Reinforced Jump Uniform Maker in the world? WWII Impression or At the Front or the Sems INC. What do you prefer? Which have the correct shade of OD3? We have one Impression Jump Uniform and the other are Sems. The colors are very variable. Can you help me (us)? Thank you!

Khaki showed up in a few different hues because the material was not all dyed at the same time. I wouldn't get hugely hung up on the color of Khaki it is. I would concentrate on how the uniform is made and how well it shows up. I have an imported(aka far east made) M42 and ATF's seem to hold up just fine. Others can give you thier experience.

... I have an imported(aka far east made) M42 and ATF's seem to hold up just fine. Others can give you thier experience. Thanks a lot! I heard that the correct maker is the ATF, but the Impresson makes good too and they explain it why and how do they do the best... I don't have any idea.

Gee, yet ANOTHER Easy Co....:-(.
I recommend ATF as well. I have both the reinforced and unreinforced uniforms.

fyi the ATF M42s now are also far east made. It even came with a tag that said Made in China. I've just ordered a set last month.

I hear nothing but good things about WWII Impressions. From my experience, their uniforms are much higher quality than ATF's. Ive also heard this about their M42's

I have some of WW2 Impressions M42 pants The crotch did not tear out of those the way some of my friends ATF M42 pants did. The material seemed softer as well. Not a big deal I guess just a difference I noticed.

We bought some Wool Shirt... 70% wool and it was made in China. It's strange because I thought that it's an american company... The real thing is that The Impression made suit is softer than my Sems suit. But I don't know it's a bad or good thing in this option. Did you see a real one, did you touch one (I know these are stup**d questions, but I never saw and touched).
