Hello everyone I am a medic serving in the Armed Forces of Ukraine looking to speak with any American military members past or present that have spent long periods of time in there ecwcs gear. I am working to put together a post comparing our nations cold weather gear and would like to annoy you with a few questions over the next few days. I tried to ask this in the army Reddit but they accuse me of being a Chinese spy 😂. For those of you under the delusion that your jacket is somehow opsec please realize I have all these pieces sitting in front of me as I write this. My questions are mainly based around the layering (yes I’ve seen the chart) but I’d like to hear how it’s really being used. my other questions will mainly be about durability (especially the level 3 fleece) but I would also like to just hear your opinions or any story’s you would like to share about them. Keep in mind I only have levels 3 6 and 7 in my possession to make comparisons so please keep it related to these layers. I would like to hear opinions from everyone you don’t have to be a door kicking bad ass if you had to spend the winter at the gate I’d love to hear from you as well. Thank you for taking the time to read my post and please forgive my English i use translator so the grammar maybe very wrong. Thank you again I hope you all have wonderful evening -миша🐭❤️

My favorite! I have try many types of combat shirt but this one is best for me. I really like the arm vents and pocket drain holes. I have never used the shoulder pad slot so i can’t speak about those but they are strong. My only complaint is I wish the hood was bigger. If you want to buy one used know that the version of Multicam doesn’t match perfectly. this never matter to me but may be issue for some.I wish I bought another before they were discontinued :с (note: front zipper can advance your career if used strategically)

Sorry my English not great. This is my first crye product it was given to me by friend it needs new buckle i am thinking maybe cobra buckle as replacement. I will be transferring most of my pouches from the old belt to this but would love any recommendations for a general purpose pouch that takes 4 rows of molle. I have thought about just using 2 separate pouches but am curious what there is for 4 row. Thank you for reading!
