Tiger stripe?

Post by Jerico on Thu Nov 05, 2009 9:31 pm

Hi I just wanted to know why when I measured myself I was waaay bigger then even the X-large measurements on ebairsoft's tiger stripe?

I'm no huge behemoth but like when I measured my shoulder width I was 96" when the X-large was 51" should I try to cut down a bit?

You can't get a measurement of 96" unless your shoulders are 8' wide. did you measure a circumference or a length? Your mom can probably tell you what you should be looking at for sizing.

Your breadth of shoulder should be quite a bit smaller. One of the sites had sizing based on weight and height. I'll try to find it again and post it here.

No they wear OD


Finely a question I know the answer to backwards and forewords.
By the way did the marines wear tiger stripe

Tigerstripe was never issued to American troops in-country. It was scrounged from the ARVN, sewn together by a talented mama-san to fit the oversized roundeye, and worn mainly by unconventional units like Army Special Forces (a green beret is a HAT, not a soldier), Long Range Recon Patrol, MACV, or the soggy SEALs.

Typically the USMC would have worn their poplin slant pocket OD's. There are always exceptions though.

A great site to bookmark:

Thanks!


Would it be cheaper to get tiger stripe on opsgear.com or ebairsoft.com.
One more thing would it be better to tactical tiger or jungle tiger.
