[QUOTE="murphy j, post: 2052619, member: 6452"] The only thing I've ever been issued that was a 50/50 cotton/nylon blend is socks and BDUs. The socks are F&cking worthless in cold weatherand most other times too in my opinion. I've purchased my own merino wool socks. The FITs brand are my favorites and are American Made. All our cold weather gear is Polartec of varying weights(silk weight base layer, waffle pattern mid layer, happy suit and fleece) and Gore Tex. Our wet weather gear is a fabric similar to Gore Tex, but can't remember what it is. All of it is light weight, but will add up. Most guys will find a combination of those that work for them. All of it can be found at surplus for pretty reasonable prices. Cotton Kills is a pretty good mantra, but I know for fact that some Nordic military forces use it in limited amounts. [/QUOTE]
