britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk do boots for £20 or you can buy a two pack with assault and desert boots for £35. Masks can be £15-£40 for a good one, even up to around £70 for some fancy custom kind of thing (they have them at airsoftworld) I don't think gloves are too important as a beginner for the price but cheap ones are only like 3 quid on ebay or chinese oakley clones / viper spec ops gloves £15
Thanks for the info & site will take a nosy This is what i got a British Army modular desert DPM assault vest complete with 3 standard utility pouches, 1 small utility pouch, 1 water bottle pouch, 2 mag pouches, 2 40mm grenade pouches, 2 HE grenade pouches and a mag dump bag/helmet carrier (that folds up into a storage pouch). Also included, a non-issue pistol holster in tan and a pair of early issue knee pads in tri-colour desert. for 21 pounds + 7.50 postage fleabay won out this day lol
Before i buy any of those boots i'll have a word with my brother(He's in the Rifles) and i think he sourced his own footwear due to the horrendous boots he was given
It's worth finding out what your brother uses, but you should keep in mind different boots fit different people well. For instance I think German Para boots are really comfortable, whilst some people don't get on with them at all.
