Gen III Fleece Jacket

My son is a cadet in the Civil Air Patrol (CAP). The same fleece at the standard uniform store is $81 so this is much more affordable. Quality is great. Material is soft. He got the XL so it was there is a bit of room to grow and would go over his ABUs. The fit is good in the body but the sleeves are a bit long (do not interfere so ok for uniform).

So I compared this Propper fleece to my actual military issued fleece and it's identical. At the BX military clothing sales, they run somewhere in the neighborhood of $80 so this is a great buy on an authentic ECWCS fleece coat.

But it’s real. I’ve been in the Army 14 years and I wouldn’t wear knock off items in uniform. This jacket is serious and I love wearing it around the house more than I do in uniform. I’ve got bigger shoulders and back from strongman and powerlifting and the large long fits with plenty of room

This is a very nice jacket and it feels amazing. It is soft, but warm and the outer layer of fleece allows for multiple patches. The only downside is that it doesn’t taper towards the bottom and leaves it with a questionable feel. But anyways, serves it purpose well.

First thing I noticed is that the color is off, it's really green. And the cuff on these are very loose. Now, they are much softer than standard issue.However, what made me give it a 1 star is because of the amount of lint coming off it. I wore it to work twice, and my entire seat belt is covered in lint. And you can't really wash it with anything else because of how much lint comes off it.I bought it from Amazon Warehouse for $15, so, not terrible for the price but won't buy it again or recommend.

The quality is of the product is great but be advised I am wearing M for all kinds of jackets and ordered M.But it was too big and sluggish on me so I returned it.

This is advertised as being in regulations but its actually almost a bright murky green if that makes sense as opposed to coyote colored.

I’ve gotten higher quality fleece jackets for free.
