Description
These are improved rain suit trousers from ORC Industries. They are similar to the USGI Improved Rain Suit Pants, but with minor changes and improvements from ORC. Intended to be worn over the combat uniform pants or cold weather layers, these pants have pocket access flaps that close with button snaps, and the bottom half of the legs unzip for easy donning and doffing, secured by hook and loop at the bottom. The pants are lightweight and easily packable. Overall these are great pants to keep you warm and dry, especially when you’re staying in one spot for a while.
Features:
- Waist Drawstring – These pants have a drawstring that allows the wear to adjust the waist to the perfect size.
- Zippered Pants – Pants crotch is zippered.
- Pass Through Pocket Flaps – Open Flap pockets for reaching through and accessing layers worn underneath.
- Adjustable Pants Cuffs – Pants cuffs are adjustable with drawstrings, hook and loop tabs or other methods.
- Universal Camouflage Pattern, UCP – Following in the steps of the USMC and its adoption of a digital camo, the US Army adopted the Universal Camo Pattern in 2004. The pattern was designed to function suitably in any environment. The overall intention of a camo capable of that is to remove the need to issue a camo pattern for each potential combat zone and environment, thus making the production and issuing of camo easy to troops. The camo was adopted and saw use in both Iraq and Afghanistan, where it would perform at best adequately. As a result of the camo not performing as good as intended the US Army began looking for a replacement. By 2011 the US Army would test in a variation of UCP, UCP-D, against Multicam in Afghanistan in the search for a replacement. By 2012 all US Army Soldiers deploying as combat troops to Afghanistan would be issued uniforms and gear in Multicam and UCP would be phased out of service in 2019 as a service camo. UCP would commonly come to be referred to as ACU, based of the adoption of the ACU pattern uniform that was adopted at the same time, much the same as the woodland camo came to be called BDU.
