This is what the GML wants Just curious, were you ever approved or did your GML stick to his/her guns? If so, you might request that they consult the detachment for an opinion. I cannot speak as to what the deatchment staff may think of the IB set, but you are indeed right that multiple guards have...

I must admit that at first while reading through these posts I was a bit skeptical when i saw the shoulder pads. In my head I could see a guard with these HUGE shoulders and then I read the next few posts and BOOM! You can color me convinced now. Great job on the build! Thank you, Dennis! I complet...

Hello Guards, I am thinking about upgrading my Rubies bucket for something lighter and more accurate. KB Props is running a sale at the moment, and I have failed in finding any posts here on the forums that discuss their helmet. They also do not have many photos of the bucket on their Facebook page ...

Not sure when you got your robes, but when I got mine (around September/October of last year), they were probably 4-6 inches too long! Definitely no problems getting mine hemmed... My size was a large (I am 6', 195 lbs) and the inner robe fit perfectly (other than needing to be hemmed) and the boot...

This was a very helpful read, I will definitely be taking your advice on the sizing and can understand about the boots now, makes a bit more sense to allow them if they are not as visible compared to our riding boots for line officers. I think I will also take your advice and buy the items separate...

Hi there folks, I have literally just signed up and went straight to this thread after looking at IB page and am nearly about to click the buy now button but will hold off just for now. I have a few questions about them if you wouldn't mind... Has anyone bought the full set they offer? (https://www...

Thanks Erice May I ask if you know anything about the inner robe. I haven't come across one from IB before. No problem, Scott. The IB set comes with both the inner and outer robes. There is no way to purchase them individually on the website, but Vincent might make an exception if one were to email...

As Scott and Chad have said, they are indeed approvable. I have them myself and like them. Approved in December in the Florida Garrison. As you acknowledged, they will need to be altered to fit your height, but, unless you are exceptionally tall, there should be plenty of fabric to work with. Hope t...

I know there are several topics on the IB set already, but I wanted to address one aspect of the outer robes in particular: the sheen/shimmer of the velvet used. Feel free to remove this thread if redundant. Anyhow, I wanted to gauge the opinions of fellow guards. I've only ever trooped my guard wit...
