How to Wear the TRU-SPEC Poly / Cotton Ripstop BDU Coat
Propper Poly / Cotton Ripstop BDU Coats
Item #: F545438001
The Propper poly / cotton ripstop BDU uniform coat is a reliable, multipurpose outer layer you can count on, under any condition. Sewn to military specifications, its sturdy, ripstop construction is tough and functional and makes it an ideal choice for anyone working in public safety as well as for military professionals. The felled sides and sleeves give the coat a consistent, seamless look, and the military-grade pockets provide maximum storage and have covered-button fronts, which maintain a professional and neat look, while the fused collar and reinforced elbows keep you comfortable. Drain holes on the bellowed pockets encourage breathability and expel excess moisture. The chest pencil pocket offers additional storage and the adjustable sleeve buttons make this coat customizable for any build.
Regulatory Requirements
a.This uniform coat is worn hooked/looped and/or buttoned and zipped. The coat has hook-and-loop fasteners for wearing the insignias, skills tabs, rank insignia, Chaplains International tape, and nametape. The coat has a zippered front closure, tilted chest pockets with hook-and-loop closure, hook-and-loop or button sleeve cuff closure (which must be closed at all times), integrated blouse bellows for increased upper body mobility, and shoulder pockets with hook-and-loop.
b.The mandarin collar will be normally worn in the down position. Soldiers are authorized to wear the mandarin collar in the up position when wearing body armor or when weather conditions dictate the wear, as prescribed by the commander.
c.The coat is normally worn outside the trousers, and the trousers are worn with a belt. The coat may also be worn inside the trousers when directed by the commander (that is, when wearing the outer tactical vest, mission oriented protective posture gear, and so forth). The tan undershirt is worn underneath the coat; it is tucked inside the trousers at all times.
d.The coat will not extend below the top of the cargo pocket on the trousers and will not be higher than the bottom of the opening of the side pocket on the trousers. The elbow pouch with hook-and-loop closure for internal elbow pad inserts must be closed at all times. Permanent infrared feedback squares affixed to each shoulder for nighttime identification will be covered when insignia are not worn on the pocket flaps. Sleeves will be worn down at all times (not rolled or cuffed). The sleeve cuffs on the combat uniform coat are not authorized to be rolled inside the coat.
e.Soldiers may sew on the Chaplains International tape, name tape, rank, and all authorized badges as an option. Hook-and-loop fasteners for Chaplains International tape and name tape may be left on or removed when sewing on the uniform. If worn, badges must be all sewn on or all pinned on; Soldiers are not authorized to mix sew-on badges with pin-on badges.
f.When personnel sew on badges, the following must also be sewn on the combat uniform coat: name tape, Chaplains International grade insignia. If a nametape, Chaplains International tape or grade insignia is sewn on, then personnel must sew all three of these items on the uniform coat. This requirement does not apply to the patrol cap. If Soldiers choose to sew on Chaplains International name tape, rank or authorized skill badges, it will be at their own expense. Soldiers are not authorized to wear pinned on badges in a field or deployed environment.
