I agree! Beginners mainly should use what they have.
But often the stuff people find in their home or in charity shops doesn't really serve outdoors.
The hunting clothing I recommended here is French summer hunting clothing. It has nothing to do with usual northern European hunting equipment. I use it a lot and its fine. The Austrian army surplus stuff is usually very good for hiking an bushcraft.
I have no Idea about Scandinavian circumstances.
All together I spend perhaps 10 month over there, mainly in summer and autumn.
I guess it's not totally different to north eastern Germany but of course it's different!
