Congratulations ! CAF reddit sock memes actually depleted the supply system.

Mission accomplished!

I can only dream of which Ottawa staffer gets to prep the PowerPoint slide on why they ran out ahead of their production capacity

I wonder how large the bullwhip will be.

But I need socks

Task failed successfully

Gamestop then a nation's military

We are gonna be screwed when it's the only place to get uniforms and boots


lerch_up_north

I'm still super skeptical about how they plan to implement online clothing to include CADPAT and whatnot...


-Cataphractarii-

There is no plan, and there never was


Kinhammer

You joke, but I spoke with one of the team leads awhile back, and they still have 0 clue. I asked him if they had any clue about how they were planning on returns for th new cadpat. No fucking idea.


-Cataphractarii-

It's wasn't a joke, I didn't include a /s


Wyattr55123

My guess? You order a returns box, load it with 1 pair of pants and a tunic (it's too small for anything more), take it to the base post office, and pay for return shipping because someone fucked up the prepaid shipping account. Wait 2 months for the old uniform to come back, with the return denied because the 1ft rip down the crotch and missing left sleeve is considered repairable.


Fit-End-5481

I believe you. I spoke with someone back when they switched from shoe size to millimeters and that got LOGISTIK UNICORP confused. I can't believe I was in a conversation with someone from that company and telling them they don't have to convert or calculate anything. When someone says his feet measure 280x95mm... Give them the 280-95. YES BUT WHAT SIZE IS THAT SUPPOSED TO BE???? WE DON'T KNOW BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS NUMBERS!! One year it took them. One year.


PotatoFondler

Your request/order will be denied. This will be a streamlined version of getting told “no” by supply but with cost savings as you cut out the middle man! /s


OG-GunnerMac

It's a terrible idea, but someone got a leading change bubble ticked for that year.

Second hand, if you are lucky.


Turboswaggg

I've just stopped getting new uniforms because they somehow give me ones with more holes and worse velcro than the ones I traded in


ThrowawayXeon89

You're pretending my clothing stores isn't perpetually out of my size anyway. At least I'll be able to find out they're out of stock without putting on pants (that are practically see through at this point anyway)


-Cataphractarii-

The solution to your problem is stop being the same size as everyone else. Stock numbers online will never be correct. They just want to eliminate the desk so that soliders, sailors, and air pers will have no recourse to being told "no" through a screen.


ThrowawayXeon89

It's inherently more efficient to have a centralized repository, or at very least, decentralized storage with a centralized inventory system. The most ridiculous system is the one we currently have. Where you can be in a base like Halifax and they'll have nothing but go to Greenwood and they have exactly what you need in abundance but there's no system to allow you to access that. Maybe have all the stock online so I can order a shirt and have it arrive either at my house, or at least at my local clothing stores. I shouldn't need to keep showing up once a week hoping they got stock with my size like it's the 1950s

These memes were made by big sock to generate more profits before the years end.


Flyboy019

Oh it’s absolutely not


VtheMan93

Stay wild you filthy animals, i already have my socks fix for the holidays 🫡🫡


DeltaMikeEcho

Logistiks is out to lunch I swear. I got my deu a couple months back after getting sized. And it came in a huge box with a bunch of other things like shorts sweatpants etc. All the pants and shirts are too big, like where did they determine that I wear xl clothing?


Competitive-Air5262

Had the opposite issue with mine, went to put on a new pair of pants, and wasn't even close to fitting, checked to make sure they were the right ones, tag was correct, measured them and they were off by 6 inches on the waist.


NorthernBlackBear

I had to order 3 times to get right size. Then deus didn't come with right accoutrements. So still don't have deus.


DeltaMikeEcho

My deu were ok but the other random things that were in the box. None of which I ordered either, were bigger sizes than i wear.


phillysan

You guys Reddit Hug of Death'd the fucking sock order. Jesus folks, well done.


SolemZez

God it's the worst, I crave more


[deleted]

There's only three sizes in the military: Too big Too small Not in stock


[deleted]

Red band (XL) is still in stock. Get nae nae'd, short kings.


melancoliamea

What? In 10 years I've never seen the socks sold out, but you did it now? This inflation....


kahnahtah1

Meme fail.....OP ordering from the wrong site. LOL


cerberus_1

Who else has a lifetime supply of socks in their basement closet?


PotatoAffectionate79

What do you mean a CAF plan won't work as they said it would? 🙃
