Olin Varustelekan nettisivuilla täysin normaaleista syistä ja siel tuli vastaa tää :D

This is a joke/novelty rank insignia from army surplus store but it still feels like it should be actual rank insignia

Varusteleka - Särmä TST L5 mono de patrulla térmica

Durante una reunión mientras tomaba un café con Varusteleka, me mostraron el mono de patrulla térmica Särmä TST L5. Es una actualización de un artículo popular del ejército finlandés que fue diseñado a mediados de los 80 y utilizado cuando estaba en posiciones estáticas como el servicio de guardia. Cuenta con dos cremalleras delanteras y dos cremalleras laterales para las piernas para facilitar…

ah my clothes being cold n wet from melting snow n being stuck in a male-dominant place against my will now what traumatic time does this remind me of

With apologies to @varusteleka and @diamondguls

Always lowkey look forward to our eventual 1-2-times-a-year varusteleka order because it means I get to get jerky, so while the wifes are ordering more socks and warm layers for their cold-sensitive asses I'm just like "Treat? :O Jerky? :O Treat?"

I was thinking about getting something from varusteleka :( whats a better place to get military surplus?

90% of my acquisitions have been things i’ve found irl, exclusively in antique stores or vintage shops because even if you can find a brick and mortar surplus store it’s simply not worth your time. Football season is over; it’s not that surplus is drying up like you hear people say, the wells have been empty for years now. Places like Varusteleka, American Pipedream, and Kommando Store still receive the odd shipment of miscellanea now and again, but warehouses full of the articles that are most prototypical of what people want from milsurp (N-1 deck jackets, M43s, M65s, fishtail parkas, strichtarn coats, bomber jackets, etc) are an anachronism in the 21st century. You can see it written all over the marketing of the popular milsurp retailers; it’s not possible to keep a business afloat with used tableware from the Italian Airforce or a random smattering of SADF web gear, so they’ve pivoted to structuring their brands around niche internet demographics that they can outsource new-production commodities to cater towards. It can’t feasibly be just about the militaria anymore, so they have to build up a recognizable brand around themselves hence all the shop specific t-shirts and paraphernalia. The new wave is far flung from the ad-hoc bargain basement nature of Army Navy stores of yore. Like with everything post the rise of e-consumerism the market has been rationalized, the prices standardized, and everyone is a collector now. To actually answer your question though, I recommend just getting an idea of what you want and then getting it from ebay or an equivalent, or finding a dedicated curated vintage shop nearby. The prices won’t be dirt cheap, but I think it’s more worthwhile to just get a quality garment where you know you can find it instead of wasting an indeterminate amount of time in vain trying to salvage from thrift stores.

varusteleka boot order came with a free crushed ladybug.... im gonna have bad luck for 10 000 years now...

Hi Alice! I was wondering if you had any reccomendations for military surplus places? I love browsing the stock of various places but the only ones I can find seem to be uncomfortably right wing

I’m afraid it is simply an occupational hazard. Varusteleka are pretty good, though

So nice they killed me twice

Wasn’t intending to have to make a post like this uh. Ever again. But uh here we go again ig! Can’t deal with the massive Nazi problem but they can sure snipe somebody who has like at most 20 followers! Anyway mutual post! And once again sorry if I missed or added people that were/weren’t mutuals, memory problems sure are fun!

Are any of the varusteleka backpacks good or are they ripping you off with those prices?

met a tumblrina today..... effervescent @varusteleka​

In a terrific display of intelligence and business savvy, the CEO of Varusteleka has insulted his company's (allegedly) majority clientele by getting political on Twitter during election time and giving a lukewarm non-apology later on.
