Military clothing - decisions, decisions

Clothing plays an important role in the world of airsoft. It often mimics real units, imitated by players. Manufacturers keep on offering a wider and wider range of additional accessories that emphasize designs and make them unique.

Military clothing - not just traditional camouflage

Airsoft is not just about reenactment of military operations - it also ties into the military style of dress and camouflage. During their first engagements, beginners are often surprised by the attention to detail, displayed by their teammates. Airsoft arenas often showcase military uniforms of many nations and different periods in the history of military equipment. Contemporary, Western elements of clothing are the most popular at the moment. However, accessories are as important as the basic clothing. Balaclavas, shemaghs, caps and T-shirts of various colors provide not only comfort, but also the opportunity to emphasize individual style. Accessory manufacturers are more than eager to provide those army fashion statement items.

Military clothing accessories

Apart from aesthetic values, proper airsoft clothing should fulfill several essential functions. First of all, it should be adapted to the conditions of the battlefield, so that it complements the camouflage and does not reveal the player's position, e.g. with reflective elements. Endurance is equally important. Regardless of whether it’s a sweatshirt or a balaclava, it should serve us longer than during just one battle. Airsoft is very dynamic and engagements can last up to several hours. No item of clothing should cling, chafe or limit mobility. Military clothing is not just uniforms. Accessories are very versatile; balaclavas or shemaghs can also serve for other activities, e.g. mountain trekking, kayaking, cycling, and even everyday jogging.
