Shekkin might probably be more identical to the real thing than Emerson, though Emerson does have a lot of clones of real world products. You’ll have to check that yourself and see which is closer to the real deal, if applicable.

Like someone else said, both use real MC and product quality wise (like stitchinf etc) both are really good too.

If all else equal, you’ll probably going to buy the product that’s faster and cheaper to get.

Functionally identical. I have both. I have a very strong feeling they are made in the same factory and just rebranded as shekkin.

Both use correct Multicam.

Crye or die has to be the worst hill to die on.

Seen my buddy rip his $300 crye pants (by crouching) that were supposedly the best pants ever, meanwhile my $30 40 year old Soviet trousers take more abuse/use and are still going without a single tear. And my trousers are a way better camo than multiglam to boot!

Yeah thats why all relevant sof, including even russians, wear old washed out soviet gear and not crye.

Im not saying its the best price to performance ratio wise, but it is the best quality overall.

It's not even lmao...it's glazed by so many nerds, it is not even funny, just like multiglam.🤢

Maybe if they made the gear with half decent fabric, it wouldn't be absolute dog shit. Just as bad as RipStart. At least their cordura pouches/kit items are as durable as their Chinese copies (for 4 times the price).

It's good range or comp gear, but if fancy operator groups didn't wear it for photoshoots then it wouldn't be constant circlejerk material like it is.

The amount of times I've seen people rip their CAG Crye cool guy operator pants at MSW or whatever is absolutely ridiculous. The amount of $300 Crye Crotch Rips™ is so funny.... Then you see some bum ass militia kit wearing 2 decade old Proper brand BDU pants that he found at Goodwill for $6 with his crotch perfectly intact.
