Marlow White
Marlow White sells everything a soldier needs for their dress uniform. I purchased my ASU from them when I attempted to buy my uniform on post and they did not have my size in stock. I received my measurements from the alterations shop and gave them to Marlow White. I then received my complete package in the mail and after a quick run to the alterations shop I was ready to go. If you want another option to buying your uniform, Marlow White is definitely worth a look.
