Army Combat Shirt

Clothing»Fire/Flame Resistant

The Army Combat Shirt (ACS) was developed to reduce bulk and heat stress, and increase Soldier comfort when worn in place of the ACU coat and moisture-wicking T-shirt under the body armor in a hot weather environment while providing protection from flame and thermal threat.

Description

The torso is made of a moisture-wicking cotton/rayon blend that increases moisture vapor transmission, heat stress relief, and comfort underneath the Interceptor body armor. The FR sleeves are in the universal camouflage pattern and have cargo pockets, infrared identification tags, hook and loop fasteners for the American flag, and integrated anti-abrasion elbow pads. The shirt also features seamless shoulders and side panels for comfort, and is treated using a state-of-the-art flame-resistant process that fuses to the fibers. It is washable and maintains its flame resistance for the life of the garment.^[1]
