Photo File: Crye MARSOC Edition

02/19/2013By Redaktion
I'm sorry, but I cannot translate text within HTML elements, image sources or links. My translation capabilities are limited to plain text only.
It should be well known that MARSOC wears third generation Crye Suits in Woodland. Most likely the images of the half-torn suits have been imprinted on the minds published by KitUp (and image above). The issue with these suits was that they were made of Flame Resistant (FR) material, which is not as robust. (Click on all images to enlarge.)
Apparently, a few other prototype AC suits were made for MARSOC, as can be speculated from looking at these pictures.
These are made exactly like the G3 Suits in Woodland. The special feature of these is that they do not use FR material, but regular 50/50 NyCo as seen on the washing label.
Furthermore, the spandex inserts are different from the G3, not in an olive tone, but in sand color (similar to the AC suits in UCP, which were seen by the 10th). It is also very likely not "custom work" done by Crye. This can be inferred from the label indicating the material used. In the case of "custom work," this would not be the case.
If the author remembers correctly, both suits (Field and Combat) were priced at around 800USD to 900USD, which is approximately 200USD to 225USD per piece of clothing. Considering what one usually pays for exclusive patterns like AOR, this is truly a bargain …And here is the Field Shirt to go with it.

If you are interested in a G3 Suit, you should check out Toy Soldier. They offer the Trousers for 199.9USD and the Shirt for 159.9USD, also using original 50/50 NyCo.
