Which period had the best uniforms for most armies?
>>61427122In terms of practicality or aesthetics?
>>61427122I can't tell if this woman is underage so I will refrain from saying sexo
>>61427122I can't guage how good these are when a foid's wearing them but the 1950's one is the most intimidating.
>>61427151imo looks above 18 shes just short
>>61427122Late napoleonic.
>>61427122WW2 was the best period for the US. I can't believe how bad they fucked up by not making the AGSU as cool
>>61427122Gotta admit, I really appreciate the Israelis sticking to classic khakis rather than all this multi-cam bullshit.
Everyone peaked in WW2 besides the SovietsHonorable mentions to certain WWI and Cold War fits

i'm detecting a lot of incorrect fudd nostalgia opinions in this thread
>>61429730>>61429725The interwar era uniforms were better than the WW2 uniforms desu. Some academies and colleges still use them though.
>>61427122So may ways to define 'best'. In my opinion the best period was when uniforms became made of cotton instead of wool, and layering became meaningful. We have better materials now but the uniforms are still designed around the multilayer principle.
>>61427151Just follow your heart and dick.
>61427122>filenameThrow yourself into the nearest river with cement boots
pic related is peak design

I think our pixel uniform has already become iconic and we will be using its variations for the decades to come
>>61431591In my dreams I see a Marine Corps patenting a MARPAT variant with the OCP palette calling it ACAPP (Any Clime and Place Pattern)and then restricting all other branches and militaries from using it saying "original idea do not steal"
>>61429725I will never have this much drip
>>61431638Hide a tiny globe and anchor in the pattern just to fuck with them when they do steal it.
The real answer is WW2 navy guys that get put into infantry roles, regardless of the country. Drip is guaranteed.
>>61431813Someone post the RMC in WWI, I remember them looking dank in BF1
>>61427122Fuck off, kike.
>>61431502gotta love how the Axis countries were so buck broken they use Garands as ceremonial rifles now
>>614271221960 and 2010 are best. A uniform is incomplete without a belt. What did they wear from 1990-2000 though?
>>61431813French and Dutch
>>61427122I like 60s outfit the best for women. 50s looks like they dressed her like a paperboy.
>>61431858To be fair, the Japanese undoubtedly used M1 Garands to dome marines in Okinawa.
>>61431858Lots of countries use Garands for ceremonial rifles. For one simple reason. Their weight balance makes them great for rifle drill.
>>61431554
>>61427984That short jacket is womenswear and makes a man look gay.
>>61427122That girls legs... where the fuck are her ankles?She got two skinny tree stumps for legs.
>>61431858They don't? Krauts still use the K98k, Italians mostly use swords for ceremonial purposes, and beretts, pretty sure finns use their RK-62, hungarians still use mannlicher m95s afaik etc.
>>61429730>this man is 50 years old
>>61429855The jodhpurs make it look gay
>>61427122Very hot
1934-1943 Heer and SS fieldgray combat uniforms with studded jackboots and the LBE. 1880-1907 USMC Expeditionary uniforms with standup collars and virtually no standardized uniform items or insignia1911-1922 Banana War USMC uniforms with montana peak field covers (essentially modern service deltas worn in literal combat).1970s-1990s US Navy dungarees with trucker hats. So kino
>>61427122Early WW2 French uniforms are pretty great
>>614271221970.The skirt is the shortest, and the V-neck is lowest.It's a start.
>>61436258>>61429855>>61429730>>61429725Pre great depression US interwar uniforms are objectively the best looking uniforms. There is some wild alternative timeline where Mexico didn't have it's revolution, Porfirian Mexico accepted the Zimmerman telegram and we got a North American front during World War 1 and dump funded all the wacky over kill proposals for WW1 era equipment.
>>61436292Part 2 of WW1 North American front circa 1920. Canadian kit yet undefined.
>>61431430This tbqh, but politically mindbroken idiots (mostly american conservative goy filth) will seethe about it.I'm Jewish by the way. You know it's possible to recognize your enemies had stylish uniforms.
>>61436292>>61436297That's neat and all but this thread is for actual history
>>61429725>can't afford real jackboots>wears some hobo wraps
>>61436308>That's neat and all but this thread is for actual history
They've always been heavy on the slouthcore slobmaxx, but as a conscript army it makes sense. Color wise I like 60s-70s.>>61429725I know it's vogue to hate on vatniks or whatever the telogreika is called, but it honestly does look good as a winter uniform. It's more their summer uniform that I'm not so big on.>>61429790I wonder what the quintessential American soldier look will be for historians/popular culture in centuries to come. The notable thing is how what was iconic and symbolic for the culture at the time isn't what they become known for necessarily. We harp on the segmenta but the Romans liked something else for symbolism (muscled cuirass and pseudo attic). Just our archaeology and movies made it so. So I guess it'll depend on what the Technocratic Dominion of Lappland or the automatium of Neo-Sao-Paolo chooses in their simulated reality movies.I'd figure the big contenders would be >>61432931 or WW2 though.>>61435958They look like a burlap sack with legs, so that's a pass for me. Blues-and-reds at the start of WW1 on the other hand are great
I personally really like austria's KAZ 03 uniform. Ultra practical while not looking like shit because of that, neutral colorway so civvies can wear it while outdoors and not look like a kid playing army, you can blouse your pants without any extra bullshit, and the boots are retardedly nice for how cheap they are. They're full grain cowhide, got a nice leather lining inside, and they're reinforced at the toe and heel.Overall it's just a really good uniform for doing outdoorsy bullshit in
>>61436359Swedes?
>>61433650Finland was not an Axis power.
>>61436320You know maybe less Frenchmen would have died in WWI had they not worn blue and literally any Earthly color. Then maybe, just maybe they could have put up more of a fight in WWII with that spare manpower
>>61436640Blue wasn’t a bad choice given it blended in with fog and the skyline
>>61427151worst part is that, through the power of make up, 14 year olds can be made to look 20 and 30 year olds can be made to look like they're 14
>>61436676Blue is a shit choice. A guy recently fighting in Ukraine even made note of how shit blue is on a trench warfare battlefield. I don't have a timestamp, but its in here where he says it.https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=KcvJgP-vU30
>>61436621>signed the anti-comintern pact>joined germany against ussr>uk declared war on themGood enough for me
>>61432931look like they're ready to take on an alien invasion
>>61431832Sorry for dumb question but what *are* the seabees? I have tried reading their wikipedia article but for some reason I cannot comprehend what it's trying to say
>>61427122Early Modern
>>61437709I always assumed they were just the Navy's combat engineers but with less combat
>>61429725>>61429730Kinda funny how the uniforms were best when the US military was small and not as professional
>>61436485finns so the first two are same as the swedes
>>61436640A khaki uniform (still with red pants) was in the works when the war broke out but we didn't have time to set up mass production for it and we had a shitton of blue dye on hand, so we went with >>61436320 instead of pic related. Eventualy we adopted >>61435958 in the interwar period
>>61440147Clearer pic from a Kraut magazine
>>61440156>>61440147Red pants on the parade version only, my mistake
>>61436739It wasn’t the worst color in the world considering it actually looked for grey more than anything.
