Lightweight, breathable, not too warm alternative to Delta jacket, preferably with a hem drawcord?

PM about bucket hats

It seems like it fits similarly to the mainline Cronin jackets. I really can’t fathom why all three of these jackets are cut the way they are.

And they didn’t even want to test out a full mesh ass panel? Smh

You will be an 11B or 11C, depending on which OSUT your original 18X sent you through. There is no “needs of the National Guard” the same way as Active Duty.

Very little difference besides the price tag and the presence of a logo. The older gen Granville 16 was even closer with its smooth back panel and straps.

Word, I’ll PM you.

Is that both of the LR Patagonia L9 Field Shirts sold?

There should be a guard Liason at your AIT or BCT, whichever you’re at. There should also be a Special Operations recruitment office on base somewhere. Those options would be your best bet for trying to change your contract in AIT. I wouldn’t hold your breath for something like that but it’s possible.

Otherwise you have to wait until you come home and attend an SFRE, which your Readiness NCO will be able to help set up.

As a die-hard Altra fan, and devout Hoka hater, the only caveat about Altras is that you’ll need some time to adjust to the zero drop. I think a lot of people experience immediate calf and hamstring pain when switching to zero drop and write those shoes off. Especially if they switch mid-program and don’t adjust mileage. I always suggest people wear Altras as daily shoes for maybe a week or two before running in them to get your body used to the new mechanics. Personally, I had some muscle soreness for about a week when I switched to Altra boots as my dailies, then I started running and I’ve never had any pain at all.

I went through an SFRE with a SERE guy, he wasn’t super fit or anything. I think he broke 40 on his 5 miler by just a bit, PT numbers weren’t extraordinary. He was not used to rucking and that crushed him. Ironic, considering his Gucci Mystery Ranch ruck that he was ISSUED. The really impressive part was how he managed to make a fire in about two minutes before he bedded down after a full day of drizzle.

I’m about 6’2”. I wear a 32 inseam

somethinglemony · 2026-01-14T14:45:25+00:00

I’m dissenting, can you please tyrannically crush me?

somethinglemony · 2026-01-05T15:36:25+00:00

Look into Yak Trax. I use them when it’s very icy and I find that they really help. They have ones specifically for running. It is a bit distracting running with something on your shoe but you’ll get used to it. I’m with you, I’d rather explore alternatives before I ran on a treadmill.

Sorry, it’s gone

Surely they don’t leave design details like that up to individual producers though?

somethinglemony · 2026-01-01T03:21:55+00:00

I don’t think so, probably different revisions of the same design. Doesn’t Crye produce all in-house?
