Love that vest. It looks like the kind of basic piece that you can get years of hard wear out of. Really nice match with the green flannel too.

Spot on. I have worn my vest almost every day since it arrived.

Can anybody help on sizing a c-2 vest?

Anyone here have their sweatpants?

[madmonday]

yeap, i have a pair.

cardie & shirt.  both tops fit a material wise.  shirt was supposed to shrink in a wash but hasn't. . .  yet

[Akuma no uta]

@madmonday are they thick and heavy like the sweatshirts?

[madmonday]

the goods I have are a reasonable weight (mid weight 9oz per their site).  The sweat shorts have a reinforced crotch which is kind of cool & the long sweat pants have ties to adjust the bottom cuff.  Other than that I can not think of any features that stand out.

Why on the watch cap  is the label upside down?

[madmonday]

true to the original version to a fault . . . .

[spitfiredealer]

I was going to cop one but i dunno if my OCD can handle that!

[spitfiredealer]

according to the site this is why

Many U.S. Navy sailors would personalize their uniforms with their names and ID numbers. The name and number were stenciled upside down to be read right side up, when held in the sailor's hand.

[madmonday]

yeah, but we as civilians don't need that sh!t & even when in the military & issued my goods I wouldn't stencil my name on anything unless we had an inspection or something coming up . . . actually most of the folks I know wouldn't put their names on anything.

Either way it's a nice little hat.

[spitfiredealer]

Yeah can't say i have had my name on anything since school

[bertoni]

Let me know if your OCD gets the better of you with Timmbo's cap mate

[spitfiredealer]

will do mate

The RMC watch cap is insanely scratchy, just a warning if you've not handled it before…

[spitfiredealer]

Dam too late now

I think this is on individual base re itchiness as all react differently to different kind of wool. I have the navy colored wool watch cap from some years back and its ok for me. just from touching this years release (i believe :)) they seem feeling a bit "softer" imho especially the mod version with the added pom.

I love the classic version of the watch cap, rough for keeping your head warm. @spitfiredealer

If it should be itchy it usually comforts to your head after some wear afaik or maybe give a quick soak

Some watchcap action today
