Now, what exactly is the different between ACU style and BDU style pants? When I pick up multicam in due time, I'd probably pick the cheaper variety of pants.

Pockets mostly. That and pocket options like pull strings and Velcro.
Most of the differences are in the tops. I don't think most people would notice the difference if they didnt actually look.

Propper is now doing Multicam. They now offer Multicam BDU style uniforms for about $40~50 for a shirt, and $40~50 for pants. They also offer ACU cut Multicam style uniforms for roughly $60 dollars each. Slightly cheaper option then the TRU Spec but I think Propper only offers them in sizes upto 3x. Leave my fat ass out but hey, I love my TRU Specs  They also have Boonie and patrol caps in Multicam. True to my normal style, I'm not going to pimp this thread but keep an eye on the commerce dealer section if you are interested in these, cough. |

Yeah, that's why I was wondering about the differences, since Propper's multicam is considerably cheaper than the uniforms available from all the other authentic manufacturers.

Propper is good quality but I think my Tru Specs are a bit heavier cloth then my Propper ACUs.

Propper uses a differently cloth that is 65% Poly / 35% Cotton. Its different than most Crye Materials. Tru Spec uses 50% Nylon / 50% Cotton Ripstop fabric.

I just picked up my Proper ACUs and Its material is much lighter than even my Milspex Multicam, which I paid $60 plus shipping for. But Im impressed with Proper.

The price is listed at $37 for ACU cut and $28 for BDU cut - I'd probably pick up the BDU style pants because they're cheaper and just as functional, and the ACU style shirt for pockets, velcro, etc.

BDU pants and hat have arrived! I don't have access to a camera at the moment, but they both have the little "Multicam" patch on it so they must be authentic. The particular tactical hat sold at that site is made by Condor.

Damn I can't view that site on my work computer, no cookies. When you say combat shirt do you mean the Under armor type with BDU sleeves?? I've been wanting to buy one of those...

By combat shirt I mean ACU/RAID style shirt, not underarmor/BDU hybrid (though you are right, it would be nice to have one.) Propper uses a differently cloth that is 65% Poly / 35% Cotton. Its different than most Crye Materials. Tru Spec uses 50% Nylon / 50% Cotton Ripstop fabric. Correct, at least as far as my BDU pants go. The material feels different than my other sets of camouflage, though that could be since it's brand new. We'll see how it performs eventually. |

I just ordered some Tru Spec Multicam BDU's so we'll see how that goes. I'm excited, probably going to pick up a VFC SCAR as well to compliment these awesome BDU's.
