If WW2 was a fashion war
 

FORGETTING THE POLITICS AND POLICIES OF ALL SIDES during WW2 which uniforms/medals/equipment/vehicles were your favourite or given the chance you would love to wear or use.
I have only included the major combatant powers (as I see)
If you have others mention them.

PLEASE REMEMBER THIS IS A FUN POLL

Type VIIC early war version. :rock: :D

Why, an overwhelming 95% thus far. :know:

/me likes the full black SS uniform! They look badass!

All german subs type I - XXIII, just look better than their contemparies from any other country in WW2.

It really pisses me off that the best uniforms we ever had, have been in this era with that political background... our uniforms today really suck :down:

US uniforms were a great combination of style and functionality.

I'll call for the partisan of course, as it would be my uniform if I had a chance of fighting these years. Putting a small time-fused charche into one of your torpedoes? I'd just love to see it exploding while you'd do a crash dive :D
I just wonder how many of u-boat losses were caused by resistance workers/sabotageurs? There were even mentions in "Das Boot".

I believe Hugo Boss was behind the design of German uniforms, and if it wasn't for their dorky helmets, the uniforms looked sharp... At the beginning of the war anyway, not in the winter of 1943 in Stalingrad... :dead:

Probably natural that people voted for them.

if u look closely, the G.I.'s helmets today look like a slightly modified German helmet.

and a little uniform question, in all the WWII movies i see, all teh germans (that fight on foot) have these little cylinder type metal cases on their back. whats that for?

A Gasmask was stored in it (officially - I bet most of them contained actually other stuff in the field ...)

WWII Germany's political ideology was as warped and evil as it gets, but darned if they didn't look sharp.

Yep, the bad guys had sassy uniforms, great for parading. US uniforms didn't look as good, but they looked very businesslike in the field.

Neither side would stand a chance against the armies of the Napoleonic wars, though. Now, that was a fashion war!

If I spotted a soldier - any soldier - then or now - I wouldn't have a clue as to what nation he belonged to, unless he had a huge flag mounted on his head or tattooed on his forehead (big!).

So I didn't vote... :P

Any possibility of screenshots of the uniforms?

I have to agree, the German uniforms always looked the sharpest. I always thought the standard WWII British blouson-type uniform looked like a potato sack.
