For Conscripts & Volunteers
Wondering what to bring to Estonian conscript service? The Defence Forces issue every piece of mandatory kit. Conscript gear at Steelcore means the personal extras you are allowed to add. It also covers equipment reservists and Kaitseliit (Estonian Defence League) volunteers buy for themselves.
Popular picks include wool socks and merino base layers. Weatherproof notebooks, foot-care and hygiene items and a multitool round out the list. Gloves and hearing protection earn their place at reservist training events. One rule holds true here. Personal extras should be small, light and durable. Ask any veteran and they will name wool socks, woolnet thermal underwear and blister plasters first.
Everyone at Steelcore has served as a conscript, a reservist or an active Kaitseliit member. The advice here comes from time in the Estonian forest, not from a supplier catalogue.
