Looks like one guy I won't be buying anything from.

Well he might be on to some secret Night Club Camo smell for that line of camo he pretends exists, and has designed.....that doesn't actually exist.....confused yet? And if this gear is samples from companies, its all cheap crapola. The zippers are more suitable to baby clothes, paper thin materiels.....just plain shitty bargain basement crap. I know now I would never buy something he supposedly "produced"

hes had this issue in the past. I wasnt involved or anything, but other members have complained about having the nicotine smell on their BDUs that they received from him as well.

Thanks Captain Obvious...

If you're unsatisfied, contact him again and/or return your shit, saying this isn't new, it's smoke damaged, like other people have said. He's selling smoke-infested damaged goods as new, undamaged goods. Last time I heard that's fraud, pretty much. So people, CONTACT HIM!

If you notice, and read....I did

I was saying it for everyone, not just you.

i'm not 100% for sure, but i just found out that he gets these uniforms from the philipines. or maybe it was the material. there was a group of us that were going to order these uni's, and then i found tactical options, and krukspec(cant' remember which was the maker of felix tactical, both are awesome). they sell the bdu's for half the price and the quality is the same. u can find the gears on www.filairsoft.com IMO awesome forum.

I hate that smell also. I swear, I can smell it on people in malls or walking down the street. I'd hate to be stinking like that in the field.



I picked up a Burton jacket from ebay and it stunk of ashtray so bad. I washed it over and over with no luck. It stunk everything it touched. I had to bag it. I drove to work with it tired to the bed of my truck for a week trying to air it out.
In the end, I purchased a $3 bottle of lemon juice, a jug of vinegar and 2L bottle of coke. Put the jacket in the wash basin, poured the coke on it, left it overnight, rinsed it with water, and then soaked it in lemon juice and vinegar overnight. tossed it in the washing machine and let it dry. Smelt fine.
Not sure what did it, but urban myths with cleaning always involve pop, lemon juice or vinegar, so I used all 3.

febreeze dont do shit. unlike the commercials tell you, they dont lift dirt and make it dissapear....WTF, its not like your spraying liquid back hole.

The stuff is water with a slight perfume that you all pay big dolla for.

as for the cat, Id put a stop to any sales threads until he gets it sorted out...honestly, Id rather buy something that you pissed or shit on then have to deal with that smoke smell.

Febreeze actually does do more than just scent the air. But anyhow, YAY LIQUID BLACK HOLE! Haha.

Get the automotive febreeze and just douse the gear. It'll take the smell away.

Three things to remove cigarette smoke odor...

1) Steam Clean the items. This will help remove much of the main odor from the item.
2) http://www.unsmoke.com/odor-removal.htm D-9 will remove the smell of even live sewage from clothes. It works wonders on smoke damaged clothing.
3) Soak the shit in automobile febreeze as Amos suggested and pray that the smell is gone... :P

Presoak in Spray 9, then wash in Spray 9 cleaner in washer. Works like a damn,

ive bought several items off cat, and although the smell is atrochious (i dont smoke at all) i think some of you are getting a little too huffed up about this. if all you do is buy it and put it in the closet and never wear it, yes itll smell forever, but if you actually wera it the smell is 90% gone aftre the first day out, and by the 3rd game its pretty much out.

I guess the question is, would you buy something that smelled of smoke from a store? Not without asking for a discount first (or is that just me) Why should internet/mail order stuff be any different?
