So im planning to attend the 'Day of Days' game in a few weeks and I was wondering if anyone had any source of reproduction clothing from the era.
Im attending as a member of the FFI (French resistance) and its been slim pickings as far as clothing goes.
Anyone have any ideas?

I don't think there are any actual 'vendors' of authentic civilian clothing. Your best bet is to find a picture of a civilian you like and head to your local thrift store and try and match it the best you can. It's really very easy and inexpensive.

TBH You just need a 'grandad' type collarles shirt (usually very cheap in all sizes on ebay), some wool/serge/cotton baggy trousers, some leather shoes and hat of somesort, either a wool cap or a flat cap.
Couple that with an 'aquired' gas mask bag or similar european shoulder bag to keep your kit in and you're away.

If you have ever seen the player "Puddock", as he is called in some of scoutthedoggie's new Players of War videos, he is wearing a Free French armband and is usually using either his Tanaka Kar98k or his custom MP41.
