I am François, founder and manager of ww2gear.

As far as I can remember, I have always been a WW2 history buff.

The ww2gear adventure started back in 2017 with the creation of the @ww2gear Instagram page. Since then, I have developed increasing interest for WW2 reenactment.

One thing led to another, and I quickly joined a U.S. Army reenactment group in Belgium : The BRO.

Simultaneously, I started creating repro gear for myself and a few friends, in line with the concrete needs of WW2 collectors and reenactors. It quickly became a serious business, which led to a full time job in 2021.

Most products available on this webshop are handcrafted by myself or artisans, which explains our limited assortment strategy.

I am a passionate person, working to enhance your passion.

Do not hesitate to contact me! 🤘
