This is a summer weight (or hot weather) woodland ripstop BDU jacket in size Medium/Long. It is in used, very good condition. The jacket is slightly faded for the vintage camo look. There is a series of black stains on the left sleeve (pictured). There are no holes or tears. This jacket has the desirable waist take-in tabs. It has the USMC Eagle, Globe and Anchor stencil on the left breast pocket.
The hot weather combat uniform was developed out of the original dissatisfaction with the heavyweight twill BDU's. Originally they were made of 100% cotton ripstop, but in the early 1990's this was replaced with the 50% cotton, 50% nylon "NYCO". Oddly enough, the decision to forego the 100% cotton design in favor of the cotton and nylon blend was based almost entirely on the durability of the uniforms and the cost associated with replacing them. This is a 100% cotton uniform. These were known for their comfort and breathability.
The summer weight uniforms were by far the preferred BDU's among field soldiers in both summer and winter.
