NWU-B Gray/Blue USMC design in cut.


NWU-D Blue/Gray M81 BDu cut


NWU-C Vs NWU-D

the flash on my camera don't do the colors on this set any good. All the colors very dark, like deep navy blue-near black. The flash makes them look like Rothco Urban sky blue stuff.

ok...do you both have a Kirkpatrick set? that is funny if so.....lol

the pants i snagged for a crazy $8 a set, seller was knocking them out as Urban BDU in the mens clothing section.

you're a lucky guy!

I've done pretty well with the prices on this stuff too. However, a month or so ago I saw a couple of sets sell well over $100. I should be picking up some hats tomorrow (should have today, but got bad directions to the shop). That will complete my four sets, which makes me happy

I had 1 set of each and sold them for $300 each & now I MISS them BAD!!!!

Hi i just picked up a used set of NWU-D pants! Any idea what they're worth and how rare? They're marked Experimental so im assuming theyre really hard to find! Look to be in decent condition but theyre might be a few stains on them (gotta take a closer look). Really cool though! Anyone interested? (ill post pics in a few)

The price of these things bounces all over the place. I've paid as little as $25, but I've seen them sometimes go for $100 +. Size, condition, and which variant are important. My guess is they are worth at least $50 these days, but I haven't been paying attention. The Navy made several tens of thousands of these sets in total, and they were all worn in non-combat environments. Therefore, a lot of them are still around.

I just bought an experimental "NWU Performance T" undershirt today! Its the blue under armor-type shirt. Made by American Apparel. I would imaagine these are a little harder to find than the blouse or pants because its just an undershirt. Still cool though!

Neat! Please post some pics in a new thread if you have the chance. I'm sure many would like to see it.

Thanks,

Steve

Roger that! Im outta town but ill post some pics when i get home tonight or tomorrow. Its just a basic navy blue 100% poly shirt with a tag that says the experimental NWU Performance T. Sure, its just an undershirt but who keeps around undershirts for long? lol. Got it for $5 too!
