Most badass-looking military uniform

[Orgasmo]

Nice. How can I order a uniform from their fall collection?

I don't know. The Nazi going apeshit in WWII kinda made it impossible to wear these slick fashion in public. Same with the toothbrush mustache which Hitler made uncool.

Funny thing is, Hugo Boss was just one of many manufacturers of Wermacht and SS uniforms. The actual designs werent his and actually predated the Nazi's by a bit.

Pfssst. Do you know anything about fashion? You wear fashion for yourself, not to impress others. I'm going to order one of those SS uniforms, and rock that bitch to my next job interview.

How can Spain expect anybody to take them seriously with those uniforms?

 

[livingdeadmoose]

Same with the Vikings; the Norse had way too high a Fight IQ to wear something as impractical as horned helmets.

This, the horned battle helmet is a big myth. Vikings only wore those for religious ceremonies.

Looks like AnnaSophia Robb.

Damn, all it takes is one bad war and your military honor is besmirched. The French are actually one of the premier martial nations in European history.

"Italian Soldier" would be much more closer to being an oxymoron.

I guess it's like in mma, you are only as good as your last fight.

It should, it is her head that was photoshopped into that picture.

Canada's Lumberjack Commando's

Those are PIONEERS, eh. We got rid of them a while back, unfortunately. Their dress uniform was pretty tight, too.

The French didn't just have one bad war; they had one bad century. Even more if you count the numerous conflicts in which the English changed their diapers over the past millennium or so. To be fair though, damn near every nation that has gone up against the Limeys over the past thousand years had ended up with a W.

Anyways, the French do have a legit military and are very capable soldiers; they just had the misfortune of being the second best military in mainland Europe at a time when that was a very dangerous thing to be.

This, the horned battle helmet is a big myth. Vikings only wore those for religious ceremonies.

Teutonic Knights and Samurai wore horns in battle.

It was about installing fear which was seen as a greater importance than practicality.

Many armies wore stupid shit. The Hoplite plume, German picklehaub, British tall hat things. All done to scare the enemy. Remember warfare used to be much more ceremonial and symbolic.

Western historians like to make assumptions with no foundations sometimes. It's quite irritating.

Sadly yes; this is life.

Can't wait to see Final Fight have a meltdown in a VW thread.

German picklehaub was originally a prussian helmet design meant to ward of sword blows. Was a cavalry thing back when Cavalry were THE premier force in your military. Sort of like how everyone decided Berets were the thing to were to show how 'l33t' you were.

what are you trying to say, friend?

When it comes to wearing stupid things on the battlefield, nobody can beat the Landsknecht.

What made the Landsknechte so conspicuous was their elaborate dress, which they adopted from the Swiss, but later took to even more dramatic excess. Maximilian I exempted them from the prevalent sumptuary laws as an acknowledgement of their "...short and brutish" lives. Doublets (German: Wams), deliberately slashed at the front, back and sleeves with shirts and other wear pulled through to form puffs of different-colored fabric, so-called puffed and slashed; particoloured hose (or Gesses); jerkins (German: Lederwams); ever-broader flat beret-type hats (German: Tellerbarrets) with tall feathers; and broad flat shoes, made them bodies of men that could not be mistaken.
