tru-spec vs propper multicam

lurkingknight · October 13th, 2011, 16:11

I know they're both licensed, but are they the same shade/tone? I've heard there can be variation between the stock and between one manufacturer to another.

I'm looking for a few places to shop for both, preferably close to ottawa, if not then toronto and montreal as well.

I'm leaning towards tru-spec since they have a combat shirt option. Last game I started by wearing my acu top, I ended up going short sleeved for most of the day.

I wear TRU, I have had it for a while and I don't have anything bad to say about them. I wash them after each game and they have yet to fade.

I had the unfortunate discovery of how bad propper was when I bought my first camo. They ripped the first game, had stitching coming out of the seams, faded HORRIBLY after one wash, and didn't even look good. I bought tru-spec and while they are better, they still aren't that good. They have faded a bit for me, and the seams arent very strong. Both knees in the pants have lost all stitching, and the arm stitching is also falling out. I am currently looking for some good quality camo at the moment to replace the crap i wear now.

I suppose the real question is what material they're made out of. I've heard that 50/50 nyco is the best material, and fme, this is true. One thing though, is 50/50 nyco is quite a bit more expensive than say 60/40 nylon polyester or 65/35 whatever. (something like 70$ a piece vs 40$ down here, at least when I bought mine)

I have had no problem with my Propper infact the propper multi-cam seems very Heavy duty, its very thick, I wouldn't like wearing it on a warm day, would sweat way too much.

My propper atacs is fairly rugged but I've still managed to put a small pin sized hole in the leg. I crawled through some heavy shit that day though so im not surprised. My truspecs aren't too bad, a he'll of a lot more light on a warm day but don't feel like they will stand up as well as my proppers
