Three different blouse colors will be tested, with minor variations to pocket placement, closure, and size on each. Sailors E-6 and below will be given the option of a light blue blouse over dark blue trousers or a dark blue on dark blue design. Officers and chief petty officers are testing a khaki blouse over khaki trousers with the same design variations. As a part of this prototyping effort, Sailors are also testing four different colors of flame resistant, moisture-wicking undershirts, along with a low-cut molder boot as a part of the wear test.

Aviation Maintenance Administrationman 1st Class Jamel Judgeowens, a wear test participant assigned to Commander, Naval Air Force Atlantic, expressed his excitement for trying out the new uniform. “I’m on shore duty, but I will be wearing this uniform to and from work for the next four months in place of the Navy Working Uniform,” he said. “The two-piece feels pretty good and I like the new boots.
