The WWII Gear That Fails Reenactors Every Time

Gas brassards are, quite frankly, the bane of existence for most reenactors. They are a critical piece of kit for an accurate Normandy impression but they are flimsy and (more often than not) don't even make it through an event without falling apart. This the same experience that most WWII soldiers had with gas brassards as well but in their case they didn't care that they got ruined almost instantly. However as reenactors paying $15 a piece for a piece of gear only to ruin it in the first 5 minutes totally sucks.

In years past, companies have made their brassards out of canvas rather than paper. Great idea for longevity of the piece of kit but the problem is canvas brassards look and act nothing like paper, they simply look like painted canvas which is not ideal.

Almost all repo gas brassards are not patterned off an original brassard. They simply buy a repo from another company and copy it and the laws of duplicity ensue resulting in brassards that do not fit your arm properly and hang off the shoulder and a bazar angle. We patterned our brassards 1:1 off an original and we use steel cutting dies to ensure that each brassard we make to fallow the same pattern.
