BDUs come in all shapes, sizes, and wacky camos, but few end up looking as good as this. Polish Wz. 93 Pantera is one of the best looking woodland patterns that's graced the surplus world, and we got lucky enough to get a fresh, new-old-stock plethora of the versatile short sleeve BDU.
Wz. 93 Pantera was a pattern first developed for JW GROM, part of the Polish special forces. Sometimes called "presidential woodland" it shares a common pallet of colors to German Flecktarn, but with larger "petal" patterns that date back to an even earlier camo used by special forces in the 1960s.
The garment itself is built similarly to many "field" shirts. It's constructed out of a durable ripstop fabric, features a name tape on the chest, small hook and loop flag fields on the shoulders, and buttoned epaulets on the shoulders.
Sizing
The sizing on the Polish BDU is how a typical dress shirt is sized, using the diameter of your neck in centimeters. Grab a friend with a tailor’s tape or use a string and mark it to the best of your ability to determine sizing (in centimeters). When you get it right, these will fit very well.
Condition
Shirts are factory new, in original packaging.
Short sleeve office shirt with creases BUT is also camoflaged so you can hide in the corner behind the tacky office plants to hide from Karen from HR because of your latest off-color joke. Also best east euro camoflage.
The short sleeve is drippy and is my new favorite button ups to wear on the town
The pattern is cool and the ripstop fabric makes me feel comfortable using it as a work shirt, the polish flag patches it came with will be sure to impress my friend's Polish mom.
Seriously slick looking shirt, feels durable enough for hiking but it works as streetwear too.
A very cool camo pattern for almost any environment. Unissued and in original packaging at one heck of a price.
