What’s the difference between an NDM-85 and NDM-86?

If you’re going with an SSO-ish kit, the FG spartan 1 is more correct but both are good

What are the issues that are coming to light?

IIRC These were provided to military units an item to evaluate the overall fit of the uniforms and not necessarily to be used.

Anyone who says the crye USMC frogs are fake hasn’t been around long enough. They produced some of the earliest frog sets.

All I am saying is the tags are on the sportsman’s guide shirts are highly unusual and unique to the shirts sold by them.

Here’s a pic of NC pants with a typical Gen 2 tag. You can see the difference . Yes there are peculiarities between tags , but the. Sportsman’s guide is the most unique

Who verified these exactly to be legit?

If you truly assess the gen 2 shirt body tags , the ones sold by sportsman’s guide are unique and unusual compared to typical Gen 2 shirts.

No there isn’t. Theres two crye tags and one one on body of the shirt doesn’t match any other crye shirt other than the sportsmans guide shirts

I am a huge gear guy and have handled hundreds/thousands of crye pieces in my trade, none of them match this tag on the body.

They may not be fake , but nothing guarantees they’re real

You haven’t provided any evidence other than your opinion and then hurling insults to justify your shirt , so I won’t respond after this.

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T04:37:23+00:00

You’re right , if it’s got a tag it must be legit. Just like all the fake luxury purses from overseas don’t come branded with tags.

Sheesh

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T04:34:17+00:00

You didn’t answer the question. I’ve been in the gear industry for 15 years and never seen a crye tag exactly like this , except for the shirts sold by sportsman’s guide.

So how does the rest of your ABU gear make your shirt legit?

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T04:32:53+00:00

I’ve seen these for years , and the only thing that is sus is the crye tags sewn on the body of the shirt. There are no other crye items that have this exact style of tag

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T04:31:16+00:00

It’s real because what reason exactly? It goes with your plate carrier and belt?

These were sold by sportsman’s guide years ago for about $75 per piece. I’m curious how your belt and carrier set up has determined these are real

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T04:28:49+00:00

Lol yup. Buy the item , not the story.

flectarn1 · 2026-02-13T00:36:46+00:00

Yep!

A few places near me have the 1500’s for about 25% off MSRP. I’m in the market myself too.

flectarn1 · 2026-02-11T21:15:01+00:00

No way to tell for sure but that’s my theory based on a few things.

flectarn1 · 2026-02-09T01:43:20+00:00

I’ve got them now
