In other Crye news…does anybody have Crye news? I did my pants/shirt restock a month or so ago and asked about the LEO1 and combat suit, nobody would say anything. I am sure its because CS doesn’t know dates and not them being Apple style secretive. None of the normal outlets have details so I thought I would ask.
I did get the new modular riggers belt and like them a lot for pouches and such. Putting them on requires so prior planning but once they are on you don’t really notice you are wearing a mini battle belt. Because its seated through my belt loops it doesn’t flop around. Quick movements don’t cause the belt to flop around or ride in either direction. I like that because Ive had a radio pouch with a battery cable ride to one side and cause the cable to slightly disengage. I didn’t realize I wasn’t getting any traffic for almost an hour.
Great, I can’t afford their $200 pants. Now with hipsters paying $500 for them I don’t see their prices getting softer any time soon. Bankrupting hipsters is a noble cause though!
LOL, about damn time! With the fading wars come renewed interest in the clothing of yesterday…for hipsters.
Here’s hoping I can finally wear my tricolor cut off shorts without feeling like a hipster. If they can afford that, good for them. Good for Crye too, looking a step ahead into high paying customers.
There are few things that I despise more than hipsters. I hope they chafe.
You have to love Americans… 500 bucks for a pair of skinny jean crye pants. Crye’s stuff is cool but I would not pay retail prices for their clothing. I can have my custom talior sew up stuff far superior in stitch quality and cheaper too.
I would like to see Thier profit margin on those hipster pants. I guarantee that they cost less to manufacture than they’re mil line of clothing.
I just can’t get over how the proper hipsters are just now discovering that there are articles of clothing which are comfortable because they were designed to actually perform a task, instead of meet some fleeting demand for fashionability.
I’m going to start pretending to be a SEAL and sell everything I own as official DEVGRU high-speed gear. How much do you think I could get for my TruSpec BDUs if I claim I was wearing them when I shot UBL in the face?
