I bought the UTS 6'', 8.5'' and the long version in Rhodesian bushstroke camouflage and have already had the chance to try them out. They are extremely comfortable, very well made, and the camouflage pattern looks fantastic. I would be very pleased if a field shirt in the original cut, preferably with a high cotton content, appeared in the offer – that would be great. I have also used Texar products and am fully satisfied with them. Shipping and the whole process went smoothly. The sizes also match, and since I don't have model-like measurements, I appreciate that even more.

ERDL Camouflage
The ERDL (Engineer Research and Development Laboratory) camouflage pattern was created in 1948 by a U.S. research facility. Its widespread adoption occurred in the 1960s, particularly during the Vietnam War, where it was primarily used by special operations and reconnaissance units. Later camouflage models such as Woodland and M81, now globally recognized, were developed based on the original ERDL pattern. The green and brown color scheme is highly effective in areas with dense undergrowth, European deciduous forests, thickets, and mixed woodland environments.

YKK zippers
YKK zippers are high-quality zippers commonly used in clothing and accessories, manufactured by the Japanese YKK Corporation - one of the world's largest zipper manufacturers.
Rip-Stop
Rip-Stop weave protects the fabric from abrasions and tears. It is characterized by additional threads woven in at regular intervals, forming a mesh-like pattern. It provides high strength to the fabric, increases resistance to mechanical damage, especially tears.
2-Way Elastic
2-way elastic is an elastic material that stretches in one direction, usually along the fibers of the fabric. Thanks to this property, it is able to provide greater freedom of movement, while maintaining proper form and structure. Stretching in one direction allows clothing to fit more snugly to the body, which increases comfort.
PolyCotton Stretch
PolyCotton Stretch is a modern fabric that is a combination of cotton and polyester with the addition of elastic fibers, most often elastane. Such a set combines the breathability and softness of cotton with the durability and resilience of polyester and elasticity that provides freedom of movement. This material is pleasant to the touch, dries faster than pure cotton, creases less and fits better.
