When we look at the soldiers who are dressed in uniform, what do
we see? Pants, shoes, hat and blouse. Below it is a shirt and other
layers, but we wanted to get to the blouse. This top, we can find in a
standard uniform of a modern soldier. It could be described as a hybrid of shirt and jacket.
Theoretically it is both, but practically not even one. How is that
possible? The blouse has just like a jacket or shirt several pockets. It
fastens in the middle, but it does not protect so well against the rain or
wind.
Same but
different
We could easily say that all the blouses are the same, but only
with their potential and
basic design. They consist of body part and two long
sleeves. At the end of the sleeves there are cuffs, with which you can
adjust the sleeves. The blouses fastens in the middle via buttons or
zipper. Eiher way, the fastening is covered to protect against escape of heat. The
fastening goes all way up to the neck, where is a collar. Other things,
such as pockets, color, cut, etc., are a matter of the army and
manufacturer. Also, the blouse should be able for use on warmer and
colder days alike.
Army with a style
Let´s realize, that blouse is a part of the uniform. It can therefore be
assumed that every army has spent enough money to make their uniform good. If
we get the original one, we
won´t regret it. Materials that combine cotton and
polyester in an ideal ratio are used. The pockets are placed to suit the
use.
A little differently,
but better
In addition to the army, there are many manufacturers who
produce uniforms. They make them not only for the army, but also for
civilians, who want a little
more from their clothing. They often develop uniforms,
including blouses, with the help of members of special units who know best what
they need and expect. These uniforms are a bit more expensive than the
originals, but they can offer more comfort and better processing. It is
also a bit caused by the fact that not every army wants to invest so much money
in the uniform. What
can be improved on already good product ? A lot, the point
is to satisfy as many people as possible. Armies have their blouses in
different camo variations. The same is offered by private companies, plus
standard colours, such as black, coyote and others. These colours are more
suitable for every-day wear. The styles and designs are also better developed,
offering better materials and fasteners.
Which one?
The final selection will always be up to us. That is why it is
always better to know more to be ready. We can choose according to style,
cut, pockets or camo pattern. It depends whether we use for every-day
wear, airsoft, or others. With these circumstances, we expect some camouflaging
effects and above all we usually "transform" to some army that has
its camouflage pattern. Blouses
offer many advantages, they are usually wind resistant, have
plenty of pockets and generally well made. By wearing them, we will definitely not make a mistake.
