Mylle's Austrian Stuff

Ok, I see. Yes, it makes sense to use not so expensive ones for training purposes.
Thank you for clarification on this, A.

Early khaki KAZ03 set made in 2005 and from another company than the more commonly seen FECSA uniforms. Also the fabric is 50/50 poly-cotton instead of 100% cotton on the later FECSA made uniforms:













Compared with 100% cotton trousers made by FECSA in 2008 on the left:

cool stuff, thanks for comparing them, A. ... mine is a 2008 FECSA ...
my OD KAZ03 is a 2005 made one, btw.

KAZ 59 borderguard parkas:

Very cool Parkas in nice coloration.

Is there a source with pictures in real use of those?
I would live to see, if Austria used whole camo uniforms for their Grenzschutz or where there just a few camo items used.
Was the Border Guards service part of the military administration or rather under MOI (Police) administration?

Thanks A.
The Border Guard service was part of the MoD, but also worked closely together with the MoI. They had regular army equipment.
I had somewhere a pic of a patch on an uniform in use....Somewhere....

Thank you for clarification A. Very nice. If you ever come across those pics somewhere ( ), please do share.

Thank you.

Probably the freshest pair of KAZ59 trousers I ever had:

Nice pick up.

Amazing conditions. Always great to find classics in such conditions .

Thanks S. I saw some KAZ69 trousers in this condition but never the 59 ones, they got much more used over the years and no NOS was left over. With the KAZ69
there was some NOS available.

That makes it even sweeter..

Latest variant of the austrian army SF Multicam uniform:

Outstandig collection

Thanks bro. Its indeed a nice amount of stuff.

Since my mobile phone makes crappy pics, I had to make better ones:

Thats nice gear. Has anyone else noticed how similar the new cammo patterns for different Countries are starting to look like.
Regards, Kevin.

IMHO they will all run into the same differentiation problems like they had with woodland BDUs and DCUs. We Austrians for example had them with the DCUs issued on the UN missions.
Its already kind of ,,everybodycam,,.

You cant find them better anymore these days. NO! repairs, no ripped off snapped buttons:

Wow..

That parka is very nice . Not easy to find the older types in such nice conditions..

Thanks S, yes thats true. Its in an amazing good condition even the cuffs! Never saw one with out a single repair.

Rare old school medic backpack:

Just got another digital desert set in, compared with my first one this shows more fading.

Proper UNIFIL-mission display:
