Uniform Related - Soffe - Shorts & T-Shirts

I purchased new shorts and t-shirts for my uniforms and thought I would pass along. Good, quality stuff that is inexpensive. The t-shirts (50/50 poly/cotton) are available in colors to to suit all service uniforms and camouflage's.

If you've had the chance to spend time around any ODA's, you'd soon realize that the shorts are not appreciated by haters.

I love the damn things, and have been stopped by many a paratrooper on Ft. Bragg for wearing them.

Poor squad leader realizing his ass chewing to an E-7 isn't going too well is priceless on EOD Trail at 0700, and brightened my day.

Thanks for the link, we are familiar with the goods!

JB,

"the goods"? Man, I sure hope you're talking about the shorts.

I'm not asking...so don't be telling!

If I had mentioned the tendancy of some to cut the liner out, then yes.

Contain your excitement.

It reminds me of the wrong time I meandered through one of our companies to talk to some ODA team members and walked into the resident company dive team, team room. I was met with a "hey, what's goin' on?" followed by deep squats from the ODA's Warrant Officer.

He's been on the $hit list since then.

The "LT Dangle" comments from some of my colleagues are taken in stride

THE BEST

[QUOTE=jbour13;339349]I love the damn things...[QUOTE]

At Parris Island you're issued Soffe pt gear. I could do without the shirts but the shorts are the best. When a lot of guys switched back to briefs I stuck with the Soffe; I wear them for everything
