First off I'm trying to complete my US para impression, all I'm missing is the M1936 harness.
I'm currently looking at the S.M Wholesale repro and the atthefront repro. I cant decided which one to buy. Does anybody have any opinion on this matter?
F.Y.I. The S.M Wholesale suspender cost around $45 with shipping and the atthefront is around $60, but it got the manufacture stamp and everything.
Thank you very much for your help.

SM makes probably the BEST uniforms and equipment out there,but you PAY top dollar! Aside from originals,which I use,I'd got with them.

I have seen both, and the coloration is a little better on at the fronts, and ATF uses NOS hardware for the most part. SM has a little less sturdy hardware on their 36 suspenders, so I guess its up to you on if you want good hardware or great hardware. Personally, I would never buy anything US related anywhere but ATF, unless they don't carry it.

I think, I will get the SM one. With ATF I'm super tempted to buy a bunch of stuff to get free shipping.

I have had the same pair of ATF suspenders since 2003 and they are still in outstanding shape no loose seams or fraying i would go with ATF
