When developing the 5.11 Hot Weather Uniform system, the top priorities were to design a lightweight and breathable uniform, that offers maximum comfort in hot settings. Military end-user feedback and wear tests have been the base for decisions around fit, sizing-system, and material choices. The Hot Weather Combat Shirt is also available in a male version (72205NL).

features

• Mechanical stretch of the woven material (sleeves, shoulders, and lower back) allows for an extremely wide range of motion
• Reducing the woven to its utmost minimum and subsidizing with lightweight and breathable knit guarantees a high level of breathability and airflow, whilst keeping the necessary robustness in highly stressed areas
• Fit has been specifically made to accommodate either female (62044NL) or male operators (72205NL). Both styles take current anthropometrics of military personnel into consideration
• Seams are placed in strategic positions to prevent chafing
• All materials are quick drying
• Biceps pocket placement, sizing and opening direction have been made to accommodate current military end users preferences
• Zipper pull tab cords and hook and loop tabs on sleeve openings are designed to allow easy manipulation with gloves
• All visible surfaces including the knit body material and loop patches are printed in MulitCam to prevent unnatural contrasting colour blocks and hard edges
