Many of you are familiar with "ECWCS GEN3 LEVEL7", commonly known as ECWCS.

ECWCS is a layering system used by the US military, allowing for activity in various temperatures by layering items from Level 1 to 7.

This item is a Level 7 item from the 3rd generation, and it's 8 times warmer than down, and it can also be washed at home, which is one of its attractive features.

This is a civilian specification made by B.A.F, which actually supplied the US military, and it's a vest-type item that is not very common, so it's a recommended unisex item that allows you to enjoy layering while providing excellent cold protection.

As the final outer layer of the US military's proud cold protection system, which can handle the coldest temperatures, its warmth is guaranteed.

At the time, the same outer shell, padding, and accessories used by the US military were sent to Mexico, and the US-based BAF company had them manufactured by a contractor that actually supplies the US military. In other words, it is a civilian product created using the same processes based on US military specifications.

The shell is made of ultra-water-repellent nylon from MILLIKEN, USA.

The padding is Primaloft. It is a high-tech polyester material developed by ALBANKY, USA, for the US military as the filling for sleeping bags, and it is said to be about 8 times warmer than down. In addition to its heat retention, it can be washed in a washing machine, and its considerable lightness and softness are also significant advantages.
