Soo hi guys, i recentry got a lifetime deal on a 6b3 Aliexpress replica vest for 16,20 dollars (I am not even kidding and it arrived).

Problem: It looks too new, how should i age the vest safely? I dont wana like tear the vest etc, but i would happily take any advice from you guys.

Btw i am doing a Soviet-Afghan war Motor rifleman kit, soo thats why i bought this vest, i might 3D print plates for it but i dont want the vest to weight too much soo yeah.

Thanks for any advice u give me guys!

Kit list:

Vz. 53 helmet (I am aware of the wrong helmet but the ssh 68 helmets arent avaiable in my country)

Obr 69 Gymnastyorka uniform

Type 56 Chi-com chest rig

Vz-60 boots (I am going to replace them soon)

E&l AKM airsoft replica

6X4 Bayonet (The Polish variant, i dont have enough money for the ussr one)

Soviet belt with brass buckle

Soviet canteen

Veshmeshok backpack

What i want to buy next:

Kirza boots

Kzs oversuit

Collar tabs

And maybe the 6b3 from aliexpress, i heard its a good replica for the cheap price.

I understand my kit isnt really accurate and it could be better for my first impression, please dont go harsh on me, i am working hard to put my kit piece by piece.

But i would kindly appreciate suggestions for my kit if you have.

And i am sorry for my not soo good english, english is not my primary language.
