Military Surplus

This section contains all our military surplus items. Military surplus is traditionally excellent stuff; it combines durability with very affordable prices. Army surplus finds its way to the civilian market as follows: the armed forces decide to get rid of large batches of perfectly serviceable surplus military gear due to budget cuts, the surplus military gear becomes obsolete, or other similar reasons.

Some of this stuff then finds its way to our storehouse, sometimes directly, sometimes through a third party. Every once in a while, we also get random batches of collectibles and surplus rarities from obscure corners of the world. Keep your eyes peeled for these!

Availability of army surplus

Sadly, there is one big downside to dealing with army surplus – the availability of gear changes wildly, and it is becoming increasingly rare. This means that, no matter how much we wish it were otherwise, sometimes we just have no idea when (if ever) we'll get a restock of certain military surplus products. Because of this, we don't usually give promises concerning these matters. This is especially applicable to the sizes of used clothes. Used clothes come to us in unsorted batches that contain random sizes, and about 70-80% of these are what well-fed westerners bitterly refer to as“children's sizes”. This isn't the result of some worldwide conspiracy; soldiers just tend to be somewhat more fit than your average civilian.
