there's three types of people in this world. sheep, wolves who prey on the sheep, and sheepdogs. to protect the sheep from the wolves we must dress who we guard, we must blend into the crowd, we must be gray men
I am extremely distrustful of anyone who looks like this. Gayman bullshit is probably the most cringe fad Ive seen. Its literally playing dressup as a spook/undercover pig. If you dress like this then people will avoid you and with good reason. Good job "blending in" you fricking homosexuals. Everyone and their brother will spot you from a mile away the instamt you show your stupid face. You are not fooling anyone and you are not blending in with anyone. No one likes you, no one trusts you. You make EVERYONE uncomfortable when you are around for the above reasons. Grayman is just wearing what you do any other time, what grayman ISNT is dressing up like you want to be an ambiguous gas station armed robber of an undercover fed trying to catch someone selling weed.
If you dress like this you should have a nice day immediatly to save yourself the shame of being who you are.
It was thought up as a way to trick larpers into not wearing tactishit all the time. It needed something sexy like "The Grayman", and it also needed an air of tactical mumbo jumbo to attract the fricking morons.
Unfortunately those same morons have hijacked it and now going "grayman" means literally wearing grey with shades and cargo shorts or some other technical clothing that isn't in multicam.
If it's not the tactical pants, it's always the shoes that give you away. If you seriously can't figure this simple shit out then you're obviously making more errors elsewhere.
And no, I can't write an effective guide on how to blend in any more than anyone can write a guide on how to "Be normal" or "Be popular with the opposite sex." Get your head out of the fictional world built for you by the media you live in and actually pay attention to your surroundings.
For me it's the short hair, clean shave/manicured beards and sunglasses. Anyone I see looking like that I immediately think is either an off-duty cop, a Iraq/Afghan veteran that boasts about his service when not asked, or otherwise a colossal tryhard homosexual.
>average male is an ex-military
What the frick? How do Americans dress. In my c**t every other man is clean shaven and has short hair because they're not gay. If it's sunny some will also wear sunglasses
The whole idea of needing a guide on how to dress like a normal person is objectively hilarious when you look at it from a distance. It says quite a lot about what kind of people are drawn to these communities and professions.
why aren't you gray man yet /k/? why aren't you, the sheepdog, dressing in sheeps clothing?
why all gray men look the same?
they have my attention cause they are nervous and about to shoot the place, also "very expressive" Black folk cause grey men veins to pulse more harder to the point i get enauseated
>There are three kinds of people: dicks, pussies and buttholes. Pussies think everyone can get along and dicks just want to frick all the time without thinking it through. But then you got your buttholes. And all the buttholes want is to shit all over everything. So pussies may get mad at dicks once in a while because, pussies get fricked by dicks. But dicks also frick buttholes! And if they didn't frick the buttholes, you know what you'd get? You'd get your dick and your pussy all covered in shit!
Why can't people just CC in normal clothes without this cringe bullshit.
If I saw some fricker with a duffle bag, baseball cap, wraparound sunglasses, and those synthetic pants, I would assume he is armed and be right. The opposite of inconspicuous.
People who dress like this stick out like a sore thumb, especially if you know what to look for (Vertx anything, Salomons, "tactical" sunglasses, etc). I call this look "fed casual." Bonus points if you notice them using their left hand to do things in an effort to keep their right hand free as much as possible, lol.
Still need my sniper gray hoodie from 5.11 and by wolf gray molle pouches from BLACKCAWK!1!!1!!1 also I can't find any battleship gray back packs so I'm thinking of grabbing a few rattle cans of slate gray to paint my brown eye.
I am a tired old Sheepdog, the guardian of my flock.
I keep the predators at bay and stand watch around the clock.
*
Please stop the Sheep from pulling my teeth. I’ll need them for the fight,
When the hungry Wolves come calling, some dark and deadly night.
*
I pray I'll never need my gun, but someday if I do:
May my cause be just!
My draw be quick!
And my aim be ever true!
*
Heaven holds a special place for those who do the deed.
Defenders of the innocent in their hour of need.
*
May the Sheep someday be grateful. There’s a debt they can not pay,
To the Sheepdogs who lay it on the line, each and every day.
*
I’m proud to be a Sheepdog. I've done my very best!
I'll stand my watch until my Maker calls me home to rest.
*
But when I meet St. Peter, there's just one request I’ll make:
“Please let me spend Eternity, standing guard at Heaven's Gate”.
*
Lord, help us bring this ''Age of Sheep'' to a rapid end.
Then fill this land with Sheepdogs, Men of Honor once again.
*
This prayer is dedicated, to those who bravely face,
The dangers all around us to make our world a safer place.
*
To the soldiers, cops and warriors- Sheepdogs through and through.
Thank you for your service and your sacrifices too.
*
Amen

Replace Sheepdog with Airsofter and it somehow becomes less cringy
I went to a church security class recently with a few of the other guys doing security stuff at our church and the dude teaching it unironically called us all sheepdogs lmao. We went to try and learn about laws and techniques of physically removing people without getting sued but half the class was some goofy active shooter training for some reason. I guess it was at a gun range so they had to make it exciting. Anyway, when we started running shoot house scenarios the guy teaching it was like >you are highly skilled >uh, I'm ok >no, you are highly skilled, who did you train with
Bruh I'm just here to figure out what to when some crazy fugly b***h rips her clothes off and starts screaming about abortion. I shoot competitions badly, guess I'm sheepdawg now.
I either wear jeans and boots with a jacket or full Adidas tracksuit.
To be fair the skill ceiling for guns is so low, anyone that regularly practices is practically SOCOM tier compared to everyone else. Guns are not a complicated thing to use, especially modern ones.
read some prepper novels and/or subs to nutn, impossible to cringe harder, will die of beddus or cancer, family will throw out all that prepper shit to park another car in the garage, wife already cheating
The dude that looks like an off duty cop mean mugging everyone around him? Even without the off duty cop clothing and carrying a backpack he looks like a cop lmao.
The guy on the left who shaved his head in a failed attempt to hide his baldness and who's walking like a virgin with a stick up hia ass because he's terrified of printing
I will never understand the people who wear 'all grey' and do that 'greyman' stuff. First of all, anyone who can pose a threat to you on a operational level will be looking out for everyone and mentally jotting down everything they see. Average citizens who you stand next to at a bank or walk by on the streets are not going to be remembering you or having a mental branding of you because you wore a green shirt instead of a grey one. Even if they do, it will be lost within the world of the hundreds of other people they see.
Dress like a nomad instead. Basically, dress like a normal human being would in the situation they are in.
-Lightweight jacket
-Tee shirt
-Flexible work pants or loose jeans
-Wool socks
-A pair of New Balance with Kevlar laces or a pair of slip on boots with spare laces tied around the finger loop (or just practice lacing and unlacing your regular boots to quickly put them on and off)
-A surgical face mask and latex gloves
Just layer clothing when it gets cold, don't invest in wool sweaters and pants they are a burden in anything over 55 F
Add little things to your wardrobe. Handcuff keys in inseams, cuffs, knittings. Put a set of two bobby pins as well.
Why do all these morons wear slacks? Nobody wears slacks casually anymore. Either wear jeans like a normal person or go full PrepHoleggot with properly fitted clothes and modern outfits. And throw some color in for frick's sake, normal people wear colors other than gray, tan, and olive drab.
Are you guys really this out of touch? The outfit in your pic went out of fashion around 8 or 9 years ago. Flecktarn and camo in general is still in the part of the cycle where anyone wearing it looks like they're out of the loop. Skinny jeans may still be worn in flyover towns but in fashionable cities wide leg pants have been in for years now and are becoming mainstream. You don't see Raf velcro high tops anymore but they're still neat.
>fashion >fashionable cities
Ok gay. In most places people have been wearing the same shit for decades. Normal people dont switch out what type of jeans they wear based on fashion trends.
Just get normal fricking jeans, ones that fit. Why is the choice between crushing my balls and loose ass shit that looks like it came from goodwill?
>Normal people dont switch out what type of jeans they wear based on fashion trends.
Just because you don't know enough to see it, doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I was surprised when I started seeing hicks and uncaring boomers wearing black skinny jeans around 2016 or so, but it's even weirder now that they are some of the only folks left wearing a style they undoubtedly called gay when it first arrived.
>Black person shoes >skinny jeans >Asian
This homosexual shops at urban outfitters and probably bought that jacket from an overpriced hipster vintage store and wears it ironically. No way in hell this Californian homosexual is carrying.
Exactly. People look at an outfit like this and assume it's some harmless yuppy hipster, even though he could easily conceal a full sized handgun and a few spare mags under that fleck jacket.
It's an uncanny valley thing, like when you see a troony and you immediately think "that's a dude." There's hundreds of little details that you're not even aware of, but if they're missing, they set off an alarm in your brain. Cops can't pass for human.
They're all wearing sunglasses, blue or gray t-shirts and shorts. They're also wearing black socks with athletic sneakers, from what we can see.
They all have close-cropped haircuts, popular with the police.
They are facing in many directions, giving 360 degree coverage.
They're all slim or athletic.
They are carrying a lot in their pockets probably compact pistols on top of normal things like wallets.
Despite it being a political protest, they have no political signage or clothing
They're all young white men.
The guy in the middle looks concerned about getting photographed. Normally, protestors are fine with getting photographed, and those that aren't usually mask up.
It goes on and on. Their shitty attempt at looking normal is incredibly uncanny.
Two more: they're wearing Garmin watches popular with cops and they have all are holding the same water bottle.
None of these things are weird alone, but put them all together and it's very odd.
Basically everything this guy said. They're all fit and wearing a literal textbook definition of casual clothing which makes literally no statement at all.
Look at their expressions. They're not enjoying themselves. They're vigilant and on task.
Additionally, their body language says "Alert". They're all standing up straight and are paying attention/scanning the crowd and what's going on around them instead of being focused on a goal. They're entirely to focused on the now, whereas normal people are focused on where they're going or what they're going towards.
They've all got big chunky sport watches which again, not itself a red flag, but you get enough of those guys together and it stands out.
Compare these guys to the attached photo. Look at the people and you'll see that everyone is focused on something or where they're going, not scanning the crowd. They've all got SOMETHING differentiating them, even if it's something trivial and forgettable. That's why these "gray men" stick out, because the absence of differentiating factors makes them stand out.
This. >one of my coworkers is a mincing, overweight, turbo homosexual >wears skinny jeans, flannels and pastel colored frames for his glasses >out one night for a company thing >walk back to our cars >say goodnight >he gets in his car, opens the glove compartment and throws his G43 in it >look at him, honestly surprised >he laughs and says he's gay, not stupid
I'd have lost a lot of money betting that he never carried a gun
if you live around gays you have to look the part to fit in. try living somewhere where everyone carries and it wont really matter, everyone is assumed to be armed
>chronically online super autists share fashion tips
Wear whatever you want. Even if you pull it off and blend in, the fact that you're 5'6" still gives you away
Here’s how to graymanmax >abnormally long beard >Oakley sunglasses >taticool hat with some bs saying or flag >lifted truck with every single manufacturer’s logo on it, even if you down own one >5.11 pants >a shitty graphic tee shirt that has theses colors don’t run >military tattoos, even though you’ve never joined >a ccw gun that’s too big and pokes through your shirt
You’ll blend in in any situation, guaranteed
This is amateur shit right here
Straight up amateur hour
"Um hello, amateur department?" Oh wait, it's for you
Alright kid, let me straighten you out. I'm not here to larp as an "oper8r", I'm just trying to make sure you understand the fundamentals of the game you're entering.
Let's start with the basics. Ya got a rig, kid? What are you running? I utilize the Viking Tactics assault chest rig. It's a good quality option for a number of tactical problem sets. Whether I'm maneuvering about the battlespace or conducting assault/displace ops as part of a 3-to-2 unmanned augmentee urban arrestor team, I like to keep my kit relatively low weight to assist in mantling complex terrain.
What kind of threads you got, son? Contrary to popular belief, clothing makes or breaks most operations. Tactical clothing ("garment systems" to the tactical professional) enable the warfighter to maintain his readiness posture while reducing stress on the combat chassis. My recommendation? The Crye Precision G3 Combat Pant paired with a First Tactical Men's Tactix System Jacket. It's low profile, which helps because I run a "grayman" urban setup as my EDOC (Every Day Outer Carry).
Your weapon choice? Honestly, kid, it don't matter what you're using, longarm, sidearm, or scattergun, so long as you train. I can't emphasize enough how many times my reflex training in bleeding edge tactical maneuvers has carried the day, especially in so-called "light ops" (as if that's ever the case!) Snapshots, daylight-runner drills, trapping-the-keyhole; it's that focus on the basics that carries the fight. Stress shoots from prone and standing? Okay. Stress shoots while shrimping out of a training partner's guard? That's where you build those skills.
In all, one warrior to another, you'll get there kid. I'm seeing the raw material to make a true combat-athlete. Don't neglect your fundamentals, and remember to stay sharp out there.
I used to grayman when I always had weed on me.
Now, I wear dumb shit just to stand out since I stopped smoking. I figure folks look at me a feel "no one would stand out that much if they wanted to hide".
So noticeable, I'm unnoticed.
Do you think they are at least a little bit aware of how much they stand out? Do they just fight through it and convince themselves that they are blending in perfectly? You can spot these """gray men""" from a mile away just by their demeanor alone.
Who convinced the gay man that an average person WANTS to wear a polyester polo shirt causally.
Just because you want to roleplay some sheepdog fantasy doesn't mean you should outright ignore fashion sense.
pretty much.
Grey man is more than aesthetic. If you are not comfortable with who you are, and confident in what you are doing, you are going to stand out.
If you don't use the right words or have odd body language, you are going to stand out.
If you have an accent foreign to where you are, you are going to stand out.
"grey" "men" in charge of being undetected while dressing like they live at the range lol. fed gays mad as frick they spent all that time and money on looking "normal" when they're not. you can't be.
>Addidas grand court sneakers >Project commemorative t-shirt from work >Small of my back length hair in a pony tail >No hat >Gold mirror round sunglasses >Cigarettes >Green Duluth cargo pants
>Janitorial, construction crew, or other underling work t-shirt >dirty kahkis with greasy knee stains >hiking boots or light weight work boots that aren't black or in the desert brown >covid mask depending on how shitlibbed your state is >raycon or airpod wireless earbuds, being on is optional
Congrats, you now look like every other peon that no-one gives a second glance to.

Anybody who thinks you can be a gray man with a single outfit, let alone literally ANY OF IT being 5.11 is fricking stupid. If you want to blend in with a crowd you have to wear to the crowd's look. If you're in someplace like Portland you're far more likely to blend in by dressing like a gay (so just dress like you usually do).
If you're in small town America, wearing jeans (bonus points for dip ring in the back pocket), a t-shirt, and a very worn pear of boots (cowboy boots if far enough south west) will make you invisible.
Etc etc.
But no, people want to buy the look, as though a single set of cloths is somehow active camo.
I don't understand why so much of the conversation in this thread is about blending in. Blending in doesn't matter unless you're a cop or trying to sell people shit. The objective is just not looking like you're carrying a gun. You can have whatever the frick style you want as long as it's not tacticool and somehow this is constantly fricked up.
>this moron doesn't understand that this thread is mocking feds and morons that think they're feds.
There's been like two or three bits of advice worth a shit and most of them boil down to >wear local shit >avoid tactical brand name shit
Well , its been a long time coming. I'm a veteran oldgay across several boards on the than that is 4. I felt that our current /k/ threads were stale. repost after repost, we needed some fresh OC. Well you certainly have provided that, as we have seen. You abruptly exploded onto the scene in late April 2022, what are your plans for the future? So we have collabbed with Seethers UK and LurkMoar Studios to put out some big things 2022 and beyond. Some quality, original content.
I have unironically picked up a job being the grey man as a mall secret agent (covert loss prevention). Thing is, I almost exclusively wear Magnum Hitec boots, have for years for a few reasons, I might have to actually buy some generic boomer new balance or something.
Are you actually allowed to physically stop people from shoplifting, or can they just walk past you because you'll get your ass sued off if they hurt you?
I think you should do whatever you can to look like an undercover cop to psyche them out.
Nah, it's a no contact role (unless under physical danger, defense is allowed). It's about asking them to come back to the office, if they're a kid call their parents, if they're an adult call the cops if the theft warrants it, some discretion allowed. But if they say frick you and walk away, the only thing you're allowed to do is maybe try get a vehicle registration.
Kinda gay, but should keep me out of danger which I'm ok with, been in enough scraps working security.
your glowing

grayman long predates the tactical fad of the late 2000s, there were ads for booklets on it in SWAT and paladin press mags from the 80s.
If it's not the tactical pants, it's always the shoes that give you away. If you seriously can't figure this simple shit out then you're obviously making more errors elsewhere.

Got bad news for you and your homosexual country.
My country is traditionalist catholic. Men with long hair are seen as effeminate and beards seen as filthy and israeli.
crazy, because I know of far more homosexuals with the clean cut look than I do homos with long hair.
That's crazy because I don't know any open homosexuals since I don't associate with homosexuals. I'll defer to your expertise on sodomite habbits.
If you watch old movies, when they want to make it super obvious that a character is a gay, they make him look like this
The Clue ending stinger is a great play on that.
The whole idea of needing a guide on how to dress like a normal person is objectively hilarious when you look at it from a distance. It says quite a lot about what kind of people are drawn to these communities and professions.
why all gray men look the same?
they have my attention cause they are nervous and about to shoot the place, also "very expressive" Black folk cause grey men veins to pulse more harder to the point i get enauseated
I hate ESL Speakers so much, either learn the language correctly or not at all Black person.
>learn the language correctly
i know about 4 of them
>or not at all Black person.
i'd rather be a Black person than a insecure gray man, NO CAP
So there's Arabic and Swedish, and your moronic attempt at English, what's the fourth language?
>arabic and swedish
thats just swedish now, bigot
>There are three kinds of people: dicks, pussies and buttholes. Pussies think everyone can get along and dicks just want to frick all the time without thinking it through.

But dicks also frick buttholes! And if they didn't frick the buttholes, you know what you'd get? You'd get your dick and your pussy all covered in shit!
Why can't people just CC in normal clothes without this cringe bullshit.
>Blending into crowds
Sheepdogs lead the sheep to the slaughter, butthole.
>grayman sheepdogs put Thin Blue Line shit all over everything
It's all coming together
If I saw some fricker with a duffle bag, baseball cap, wraparound sunglasses, and those synthetic pants, I would assume he is armed and be right. The opposite of inconspicuous.
He fits the profile of the guy my local police are trying to track down because he jerks off on local running trails to hot women.
this is the most gay shit that's been on /k/ in years
People who dress like this stick out like a sore thumb, especially if you know what to look for (Vertx anything, Salomons, "tactical" sunglasses, etc). I call this look "fed casual." Bonus points if you notice them using their left hand to do things in an effort to keep their right hand free as much as possible, lol.
>we must be gray men
Fed casual is not being a greyman, it is being a huge fricking homosexual.
My punisher face tattoo kinda gives my sheepdogness away.
Still need my sniper gray hoodie from 5.11 and by wolf gray molle pouches from BLACKCAWK!1!!1!!1 also I can't find any battleship gray back packs so I'm thinking of grabbing a few rattle cans of slate gray to paint my brown eye.

The dude that looks like an off duty cop mean mugging everyone around him? Even without the off duty cop clothing and carrying a backpack he looks like a cop lmao.
Just relax your face like a normal person lmao.
Obviously trenchcoat man with the claymore mine strapped to his belly
The guy on the left who shaved his head in a failed attempt to hide his baldness and who's walking like a virgin with a stick up hia ass because he's terrified of printing
>shaved his head to hide baldness
are you moronic bro
hes just a bald guy
hes bald to hide baldness?
the fringe of hair most bald guys have is worse than shaving the head spear bald.
Why be gray man when you can be blue man?
Would you suspect pic related of packing heat?
Almost all my clothes are grey now, it's getting ridiculous
>wear one pallet clothing

I will never understand the people who wear 'all grey' and do that 'greyman' stuff. First of all, anyone who can pose a threat to you on a operational level will be looking out for everyone and mentally jotting down everything they see.

Add little things to your wardrobe. Handcuff keys in inseams, cuffs, knittings. Put a set of two bobby pins as well.
$100 bill in a shoe sounds pretty smart.
so much cringe in one pic

Replace the shoes with German Army Trainers and that's pretty much how I dress most of the year
Sounds like a good look anon, I approve.
I'm not dressing like a fricking tik toker either
Then wear jeans or shorts. Slacks without a jacket stick out like a sore thumb.

Skinny jeans may still be worn in flyover towns but in fashionable cities wide leg pants have been in for years now and are becoming mainstream. You don't see Raf velcro high tops anymore but they're still neat.

Ok gay. In most places people have been wearing the same shit for decades. Normal people dont switch out what type of jeans they wear based on fashion trends.
Just get normal fricking jeans, ones that fit. Why is the choice between crushing my balls and loose ass shit that looks like it came from goodwill?
>Normal people dont switch out what type of jeans they wear based on fashion trends.
Just because you don't know enough to see it, doesn't mean it doesn't happen. I was surprised when I started seeing hicks and uncaring boomers wearing black skinny jeans around 2016 or so, but it's even weirder now that they are some of the only folks left wearing a style they undoubtedly called gay when it first arrived.

This homosexual shops at urban outfitters and probably bought that jacket from an overpriced hipster vintage store and wears it ironically. No way in hell this Californian homosexual is carrying.
Exactly. People look at an outfit like this and assume it's some harmless yuppy hipster, even though he could easily conceal a full sized handgun and a few spare mags under that fleck jacket.
The worst part is he didn't even rip off the gay ass Weimar patches.
I dress like a commie.
They never suspect a thing.
I dress like this everyday and nobody suspects me
I wonder how much Dwight Schrute bases his persona off of this guy.
Invisible.
Undetected.
You can tell theyre feds because its illegal for white males to gather in groups larger than 3 as per declaration of her majestee Kween Kamala.
You write like you use an anime e-girl pfp
YOU WRITE LIKE A FRICKING Black person
False, I use pic related as my pfp in most instances.
Am I autistic or are you just schizos? I can't tell what would make them glowies

It's an uncanny valley thing, like when you see a troony and you immediately think "that's a dude." There's hundreds of little details that you're not even aware of, but if they're missing, they set off an alarm in your brain. Cops can't pass for human.
They're almost wearing a uniform.
They're all wearing sunglasses, blue or gray t-shirts and shorts. They're also wearing black socks with athletic sneakers, from what we can see.
They all have close-cropped haircuts, popular with the police.
They are facing in many directions, giving 360 degree coverage.
They're all slim or athletic.
They are carrying a lot in their pockets probably compact pistols on top of normal things like wallets.
Despite it being a political protest, they have no political signage or clothing
They're all young white men.
The guy in the middle looks concerned about getting photographed. Normally, protestors are fine with getting photographed, and those that aren't usually mask up.
It goes on and on. Their shitty attempt at looking normal is incredibly uncanny.
Two more: they're wearing Garmin watches popular with cops and they have all are holding the same water bottle.
None of these things are weird alone, but put them all together and it's very odd.
Basically everything this guy said. They're all fit and wearing a literal textbook definition of casual clothing which makes literally no statement at all.
Look at their expressions. They're not enjoying themselves. They're vigilant and on task.
Additionally, their body language says "Alert". They're all standing up straight and are paying attention/scanning the crowd and what's going on around them instead of being focused on a goal. They're entirely to focused on the now, whereas normal people are focused on where they're going or what they're going towards.
They've all got big chunky sport watches which again, not itself a red flag, but you get enough of those guys together and it stands out.
Compare these guys to the attached photo. Look at the people and you'll see that everyone is focused on something or where they're going, not scanning the crowd. They've all got SOMETHING differentiating them, even if it's something trivial and forgettable. That's why these "gray men" stick out, because the absence of differentiating factors makes them stand out.
They all look like pic related with sunglasses
Is that the gay cruise liner that shipwrecked?
I pour gray paint on my body and walk naked in public, You cant out grayman me
I dress and act like the LAST person you would think had a gun. “Grey man” meme is so moronic.
This.
>one of my coworkers is a mincing, overweight, turbo homosexual
>wears skinny jeans, flannels and pastel colored frames for his glasses
>out one night for a company thing
>walk back to our cars
>say goodnight
>he gets in his car, opens the glove compartment and throws his G43 in it
>look at him, honestly surprised
>he laughs and says he's gay, not stupid
I'd have lost a lot of money betting that he never carried a gun
No one ever suspects the long-haired guy in the tie-dyed Grateful Dead shirt to be a /k/omando and I’m gonna keep it that way.
I drive a Subaru with a PTR91 and Shield Plus (with Glock 19 as my secondary pistol).
if you live around gays you have to look the part to fit in. try living somewhere where everyone carries and it wont really matter, everyone is assumed to be armed
>chronically online super autists share fashion tips
Wear whatever you want. Even if you pull it off and blend in, the fact that you're 5'6" still gives you away
Honestly in a SHTF scenario, dress up like a homless person, and act meek but sllightly unkempt, noone remembers a homeless persons face
Because I have a shit ton of vaguely homosexual graphic tee-shirts that haven't worn themselves out yet
Here’s how to graymanmax
>abnormally long beard
>Oakley sunglasses
>taticool hat with some bs saying or flag
>lifted truck with every single manufacturer’s logo on it, even if you down own one
>5.11 pants
>a shitty graphic tee shirt that has theses colors don’t run
>military tattoos, even though you’ve never joined
>a ccw gun that’s too big and pokes through your shirt
You’ll blend in in any situation, guaranteed
This is unironically like 30% of all dudes where I live. The rest wave BLM signs and drive a Prius
This is amateur shit right here
Straight up amateur hour
"Um hello, amateur department?" Oh wait, it's for you
Alright kid, let me straighten you out. I'm not here to larp as an "oper8r", I'm just trying to make sure you understand the fundamentals of the game you're entering.
Let's start with the basics. Ya got a rig, kid? What are you running? I utilize the Viking Tactics assault chest rig. It's a good quality option for a number of tactical problem sets. Whether I'm maneuvering about the battlespace or conducting assault/displace ops as part of a 3-to-2 unmanned augmentee urban arrestor team, I like to keep my kit relatively low weight to assist in mantling complex terrain.
What kind of threads you got, son? Contrary to popular belief, clothing makes or breaks most operations. Tactical clothing ("garment systems" to the tactical professional) enable the warfighter to maintain his readiness posture while reducing stress on the combat chassis. My recommendation? The Crye Precision G3 Combat Pant paired with a First Tactical Men's Tactix System Jacket. It's low profile, which helps because I run a "grayman" urban setup as my EDOC (Every Day Outer Carry).
Your weapon choice? Honestly, kid, it don't matter what you're using, longarm, sidearm, or scattergun, so long as you train. I can't emphasize enough how many times my reflex training in bleeding edge tactical maneuvers has carried the day, especially in so-called "light ops" (as if that's ever the case!) Snapshots, daylight-runner drills, trapping-the-keyhole; it's that focus on the basics that carries the fight. Stress shoots from prone and standing? Okay. Stress shoots while shrimping out of a training partner's guard? That's where you build those skills.
In all, one warrior to another, you'll get there kid. I'm seeing the raw material to make a true combat-athlete. Don't neglect your fundamentals, and remember to stay sharp out there.
I used to grayman when I always had weed on me.
Now, I wear dumb shit just to stand out since I stopped smoking. I figure folks look at me a feel "no one would stand out that much if they wanted to hide".
So noticeable, I'm unnoticed.
For fricks sake just wear a t shirt, jeans and some regular fricking sneakers.
WOW YOU BLEND IN TO THE AVERAGE FRICKING CROWD SOMEHOW
remember what the climate homosexuals took from us
Might as well be doing the hankee code thing cruisers use.
Do you think they are at least a little bit aware of how much they stand out? Do they just fight through it and convince themselves that they are blending in perfectly? You can spot these """gray men""" from a mile away just by their demeanor alone.
So is it a coincidence that /k/ can't stop talking about "The Grey Man." after Ryan Gosling's movie cam eout?
/k/ hasn't been able to stop talking about it for the past decade. its one of the ultimate tried and true methods to bait replies.
Was that any good? I want to have sex with Ryan Gosling.
Yeah it's pretty good. The action is entertaining. And Ryan does a good job of delivering dry humor.
R8 my urban loadout.
That loadout is Unbothered. Moisturized. Happy. In The Lane. Focused. Flourishing
Very PrepHole, which stands for homosexual, you gay man.
You look like the Grey asiatic
In 2022 this get up would stand out more than having a rainbow colored haircut. Nobody dresses like that.
Who convinced the gay man that an average person WANTS to wear a polyester polo shirt causally.
Just because you want to roleplay some sheepdog fantasy doesn't mean you should outright ignore fashion sense.
Why aren't you white man yet? Letting it all hang out.
I wish the 8bit guy wasn't a massive moron.
>blend in with this look that will have everybody keeping an eye on you because you look like a guy about to commit a crime.
pretty much.
Grey man is more than aesthetic. If you are not comfortable with who you are, and confident in what you are doing, you are going to stand out.
If you don't use the right words or have odd body language, you are going to stand out.
If you have an accent foreign to where you are, you are going to stand out.
If you have to make an effort at it then you'll never be gray man, fed boy.
That man screams "I have trouble speaking to women and I carry"
ladies and gentlemen, The Gray Man
>literal gray shit
>weird sizing choices, ultra loose waisted shirts to avoid printing, fit built around CCing Glock 19+ size handgun IWB

you may not like it, but lucas botkin is unironically a natural grayman.
"grey" "men" in charge of being undetected while dressing like they live at the range lol. fed gays mad as frick they spent all that time and money on looking "normal" when they're not. you can't be.
if you aren't dressed like this, you are simply not ready for /k/ombat
>Addidas grand court sneakers
>Project commemorative t-shirt from work
>Small of my back length hair in a pony tail
>No hat
>Gold mirror round sunglasses
>Cigarettes
>Green Duluth cargo pants
Fight me
Gray man posters are legit morons who don’t know how to just dress like a normal person
WHY GO AS THE 'GRAY MAN'
WHEN YOU COULD GO AS THE BLACKMAN
>Janitorial, construction crew, or other underling work t-shirt
>dirty kahkis with greasy knee stains
>hiking boots or light weight work boots that aren't black or in the desert brown
>covid mask depending on how shitlibbed your state is
>raycon or airpod wireless earbuds, being on is optional
Congrats, you now look like every other peon that no-one gives a second glance to.
>be me

Anybody who thinks you can be a gray man with a single outfit, let alone literally ANY OF IT being 5.11 is fricking stupid. If you want to blend in with a crowd you have to wear to the crowd's look. If you're in someplace like Portland you're far more likely to blend in by dressing like a gay (so just dress like you usually do).
If you're in small town America, wearing jeans (bonus points for dip ring in the back pocket), a t-shirt, and a very worn pear of boots (cowboy boots if far enough south west) will make you invisible.
Etc etc.
But no, people want to buy the look, as though a single set of cloths is somehow active camo.
I don't understand why so much of the conversation in this thread is about blending in. Blending in doesn't matter unless you're a cop or trying to sell people shit. The objective is just not looking like you're carrying a gun. You can have whatever the frick style you want as long as it's not tacticool and somehow this is constantly fricked up.
>this moron doesn't understand that this thread is mocking feds and morons that think they're feds.
There's been like two or three bits of advice worth a shit and most of them boil down to
>wear local shit
>avoid tactical brand name shit
gray man? You homosexuals come up with new words everyday
>newbie larping as oldgay
Well , its been a long time coming. I'm a veteran oldgay across several boards on the than that is 4. I felt that our current /k/ threads were stale. repost after repost, we needed some fresh OC. Well you certainly have provided that, as we have seen. You abruptly exploded onto the scene in late April 2022, what are your plans for the future? So we have collabbed with Seethers UK and LurkMoar Studios to put out some big things 2022 and beyond. Some quality, original content.

You can't be a fit white male and go grey man anyway.
I have unironically picked up a job being the grey man as a mall secret agent (covert loss prevention). Thing is, I almost exclusively wear Magnum Hitec boots, have for years for a few reasons, I might have to actually buy some generic boomer new balance or something.
Are you actually allowed to physically stop people from shoplifting, or can they just walk past you because you'll get your ass sued off if they hurt you?
I think you should do whatever you can to look like an undercover cop to psyche them out.
Nah, it's a no contact role (unless under physical danger, defense is allowed). It's about asking them to come back to the office, if they're a kid call their parents, if they're an adult call the cops if the theft warrants it, some discretion allowed. But if they say frick you and walk away, the only thing you're allowed to do is maybe try get a vehicle registration.
Kinda gay, but should keep me out of danger which I'm ok with, been in enough scraps working security.
Just get a pair of Wolverine or Red Wing boots.
