-Criminal Number 7
The US Army has recently revealed the new Army Physical Fitness Uniform (APFU), which will be available service-wide beginning in October 2015. The design, which is based on Soldier feedback, consists of 34 individual changes to the form, fit, function, and look of the APFU. The trunks, for example, feature a lighter, less stiff construction when compared to the current IPFU trunks, along with internal four-way stretch panel, a bigger key pocket, and a “convenient and secure ID card pouch.”
The APFU consists of five parts: jacket, pants, trunks/shorts, short-sleeve shirt, and long-sleeve shirt. The ensemble is modular, although it will ultimately be up to the platoon sergeants to determine the appropriate combination of components to wear.
The APFU will come in two types: Clothing Bag and Optional, visually identical, with the only difference being the use of different materials in their make. The Optional APFU will be available sometime between October and December of this year when it arrives in Army military clothing sales stores. The Clothing Bag issue variant will be issued starting April to June 2015, with Reserve, National Guard, and Senior ROTC receiving the APFU July to August 2015. The mandatory wear date will go into effect approximately October 2017, about three years after the introduction of the APFU.

Brand new for 2014, Beyond Clothing’s S7 Linebacker Jacket is a generously oversized outerlayer which provides a quick, shedable layer to stay warm in cold, static environments. Designed for wearing over kit, the Linebacker can quickly be removed and stowed into a pack. I tried one on at Outdoor Retailer and I’m impressed. I’ve used/checked out these types of coats going back to the days of using diving deck jackets for the same purpose. This one is well thought out and the reinforced rear hem is awesome. Nonskid eats many of the other jackets for lunch and their backs are often shredded. If you use a Linebacker-style parka for transit in aircraft, boats, vehicles or just hanging around fully kitted up in inclement weather, check this one out.
The Linebacker features a 7″ insulated stand up collar and fixed insulated hood.
A reinforced back panel.
Hook and loop wrist cuffs.
Ample internal storage and 2 oversized insulated hand pockets.
A partial center front zipper and external wide insulated storm flap with hook and loop closure.
The Linebacker is manufactured from poly-lycra jersey high efficency grid and ripstop nylon. Made in the USA.
California-based Athletic Recon was founded in 2012 by the founder of the Paul Frank brand along with several other guys who shared two things; love of endurance sports and a solid grounding in the textile industry. Turns out they love camouflage as well and you’ll see some interesting new patterns in their brand. Athletic Recon has also started working with wounded warriors to help them in their recovery.
Seen here is the fathom shirt.
The Vest is called the Dogfight.

They’ve already established a solid line of clothing and the Fall 2014 line releases next week.
