I'm from the new batch that had minor changes made to their
uniform,especially the boots,and I just wish to post my opinions on
the uniform.
No 4.
Boots-Full leather and rubber soling.No Gore-Tex like older
models.Comfortable,tough and waterproof.Useful ankle guard.
Trousers-Comfortable and loose,it allows adequate ventilation of
the legs and wicks moisture away from the skin.Nylon and cotton
fabric,so tough and comfortable.
Shirt-The biggest problem with the shirt is the ventilation of the
underarm and shoulder area,basically the armpits.Perhaps that could
take this feature from the Taiwan Army uniform;thinner material and
pores at the armpit area to ventilate the armpits and allow flow of
air and faster evaporation of moisture from armpits.That would go a
great way to alleviating the discomfort of soldiers in our humid
tropical weather.If Mindef can afford to outfit the SAF with
multibillion dollar weapons platforms,they should be able to make a
change in uniforms like this.
Jockey Cap-No complaints.Good as ever.
Any ideas to improve the uniform?
