The first-level ECWCS GEN III thermal underwear kit is the main layer of the system and is designed for high physical activity. These jackets and pants will keep the soldier dry and comfortable during military training, sports and other activities that require high mobility.
The main material of the kit is Polartec Power Dry Silkweight. This 100% polypropylene material absorbs moisture, spreads it over its surface and dries by evaporating it to the outside. Thus, sweat is removed from the body and then evaporates — thanks to this, the underwear dries quickly and does not accumulate unwanted odours.
The jacket and pants do not irritate the skin, because they are smooth to the touch and sewn with flat seams for maximum wearer comfort.
The jacket has a spacious collar that does not rub the neck and does not restrict its movements.
The cuffs stretch freely and, like the entire set, are sewn with flat seams, so they will not make discomfort when layering layers of clothing. There is a special hole for the thumb, which helps not to lose the edge of the sleeve when wearing the top layer. Also, using it will partially protect the hand from the cold.
Four seams converge under the armpits. Like the rest of the seams, they are flat. They are almost imperceptible if the size is selected correctly.
The back of the jacket is elongated, thanks to which it can be easily tucked into the pants from the set. The elastic strap, sewn into the waist of the pants, will keep the jacket tucked in even when bending over and actively moving. In addition, it is also an additional layer of protection for the lower back from the wind.
There is a fly in the pants, so there is no need to take off the thermal underwear to do physical needs, which is important at extremely low temperatures. It is situated flush with the second layer ECWCS GEN III pants, making them easy to use together.
An important detail is the absence of seams in the crotch area. Seams pass along a special insert, and not converge at one point. This allows you to avoid unwanted pressure and friction in the groin, and also has a positive effect on the manoeuvrability and freedom of movement of the legs in general.
The trousers legs have an identical cut to the cuffs of the jacket from the kit.
