Is the new style more expensive to produce than the old? What had they been doing with the old uniforms, just reusing them as people retired and new members joined?

LOL! It’s old Soviet parade uniforms with piping and excessive fur trimming added.

There is nothing more military-looking than drab/khaki/olive colors. Dark blue for parade, white for summer is ok.

The international (alas the US is leading) trend towards gaudy, colorful uniforms is ridiculous.

Fashion designer Hugo Boss manufactured the Nazi SS uniforms, so this is nothing new.

Come on man, I thought the russians were going to greatly improve their military with new equipment?
Seems they can’t afford new under ware for their troops?

It takes a “leading fashion designer” to make c#*$ caps?

I wish the US Army would go back to the Pinks uniform.

Classiest uniform ever.
