Like last year’s prototype, this uniform features anti-microbial, moisture-wicking, fast-drying fabrics and reflective elements. Unlike last year’s prototype, the current iteration does not use gender-neutral sizing. The current prototype also uses more lightweight fabric and modified design elements. MCSC’s clothing and equipment team will collect Marines’ feedback on the uniform’s form, fit and function following the evaluation and make any necessary adjustments to the design.

On April 13, Marine Corps Systems Command awarded four contracts to manufacture prototypes for an updated PTU, which will then be tested and evaluated by MCSC. The uniform will provide a more athletic fit that aligns with today’s commercial clothing trends. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Tonya Smith)
