I don't know about the regular BDUs, but I just bought a couple of pairs of blue BDUs and they are Propper brand.

That is your choice but it is the most expensive choice.  BDUs can be purchased, new or used, from many different sources for much less than what Vanguard sells them.  You are necessarily buying a better quality with Vanguard, you are just paying more.  Concerning the flight cap and other Air Force uniform items, they generally are a higher quality than what is issued to Airman.
