About 2 to 3 years ago Backpacker did an article on the new layering system for the military, and included a link to purchase the gear. They have a wind shirt that looks interesting. Reasonably priced.
Anybody used it?
How is the weight?

I got some military pataguchi stuff from “diamondback tactical” OD cappeline and puffball vest. they might have a wind shirt. woody
Hmmm… “encapsulated micro fiber fabric”. Sounds kinda like Epic. Looks a little beefy for a wind shirt, though.
if you do a search there is a long forum about the new military gear.The wind shirt is made of EPIC fabric and can be bought in a brown-green color.The civilian equivelant is the Wildthings EPIC windshirt.
Here is Patagonia Special Forces ECWS gear:

Cool stuff but shipping is a flat $18.50
Go to page 29 in this forum and then click Special Forces Clothing System, There is a lot of info on the new system with info about the windshirt.It is made of EPIC material.The actual windshirts can be bought for a resonable price.
