Am I the only person that is happy about the new PT uniform?

Change is good unless your a soldier that has been in less then 6 months and have to foot the cost of it. I was caught in the last change and lucky to be given a couple weeks to get the new one. And being on a post where there are over 35,000 soldiers and a clothing and sales store that have an isle for pt uniforms that's about 10 ft for all pt gear

Me personally, I bought mine not too long ago and I like them so much better than the old ones. The only problem I have is they are a lot thinner than the old pt's, but I can get over that. The best part is it makes me feel like a ninja when I go to pt every day lol. But my question is I see a few of the soldiers in the Ecws wearing the black pt cap. Where is the guidance on that. It it authorized or not or are they waiting till the wear out dates to change the policies?

still going to get screwed in the long run!

I think the new uniforms are safer for night and early morning use. Other wise they would be warmer in frigid cold and just look better overall.

Not that it matters much, but I'm not a fan of the logo on the jacket and pants. I did take the survey they sent out about the choices awhile ago.

I personally like the new look, however I would have preferred the yellow undershirts. It get hot and humid here in Campbell early in the mornings and the black shirt is going to make it miserable... I am procrastinating buying the new uniforms for now.

Started my career wearing the banana suit with reversible blue and yellow top. Improved to the cotton blend all gray with hooded sweat shirt that was a bit better. The soon-to-expire was a vast improvement over both with the exception of cost (the shorts and shirt should not cost what they do). The latest uniform incorporates modern material, costs a bit more, looks good, but not necessarily better and is needed to ensure Joe and Jane actually buy the new uniform made of the new materials. That is one reason for the big A on the back of the gray tee shirt. Beats boots and ewets.

Obviously the material is better. What I think is funny is this is just another step the Big Army is trying to go towards copying Rangers. Black and Gold with an Army Tab...really? If you want to be like a Ranger so much, go and get your Tab!

With a few minor modifications you can look like a Golden Knight now -

Hey folks, those of us in the service for years had the opportunity to actually vote on the new PT uniform. This one was chosen and there it is. The material is the question, although I think we need to reach out and embrace some of our athletic companies, e.g. Nike, Puma, Adidas, Under Armour, to get their take and input on any action uniforms. While they have been known for "cutting edge" decisions based on movement, durability, etc, the services rely on who knows what to design a uniform. In the past we've been stuck with bad material and bad design. As long as the material and design is good, let's move on.
