New pt uniform
I've seen the Soldiers wearing the black and gold uniforms for pt recently but only a few. The Army seems to have this problem with uniform changes, I'm a little annoyed. Although I think the current PT's are bland, I don't feel like the Army should be shelling out all this money for flair. It's the same uniform, different color scheme, anyone else annoyed by this? I feel if they were going to make new PTs they could have changed them up besides color. Not to mention I really hate the LS turtle neck. Also, does anyone know the wear date for these new PT's?

They need to just get a uniform and stick with it. There are more important
things that we could be spending our money on than this.</font></p><font color="#000000" size="3" face="Times New Roman"></font>

No joke about all the Navy uniforms. If you opt for the brooks brothers version of the dress uniforms, you can easily be hitting $1500-2000 for initial issue of whites and blues alone. On top of that, you're paying for alterations to every set of khakis.

I agree with you on spending money but the new pt's. Will have some improvements not just color change. Better pockets for keys and ID. The long sleeve won't be a turtle neck. The shirt material is supposed to be more under armor like. Should be some improvements but I would rather have paper to print on and would kill for some money to buy paper towels at the office.

even if the Army did not change the pattern/design to APFU, it would still spend money in the production of the current IPFU
