And wind is a key consideration, said Collin Friedman, a marketing specialist at Gore. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He said the company was aware that soldiers stationed in cold zones shy of Arctic temperatures faced training impacts and even cancellations due to wind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe ask is really something that cuts the wind,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The all-weather jacket is being offered as part of Gore\u2019s All-Weather Integrated Clothing System, a simplified 10-piece set of pants and jackets that Friedman said protects soldiers in conditions from -40 to 30 degrees Fahrenheit and could bridge the gap between existing ECWCS gear and the recently fielded Cold Temperature and Arctic Protection Systems, or CTAPS. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Friedman said Gore aims to fill a \u201ccapability gap\u201d as soldiers increase training in cold and mountainous regions, and need comprehensive and lightweight protection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1512\" height=\"2016\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_3390.jpg-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-111756\" srcset=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_3390.jpg-rotated.jpg 1512w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_3390.jpg-rotated.jpg?resize=225,300 225w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_3390.jpg-rotated.jpg?resize=768,1024 768w, https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/IMG_3390.jpg-rotated.jpg?resize=1152,1536 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1512px) 100vw, 1512px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">(Hope Hodge Seck\/Staff)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company is also seeking weatherproofing alternatives to traditional outerwear treated with durable water repellent, or DWR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This coating contains per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, a family of long-lasting chemicals the military has targeted for elimination in substances like the firefighting foam used in aircraft hangars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Efforts to eliminate PFAS from new garments have left outerwear makers without an equally effective replacement for fabric waterproofing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One solution for Gore, as with the all-weather jacket, is to use fleece, a time-tested material, although bulkier than a coating. But multiple components of the All-Weather Integrated Clothing System also contain Gore\u2019s Windstopper technology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cUnlike DWR-treated or polyurethane-based membranes that lose performance over time or under temperature stress, WINDSTOPPER\u00ae maintains its integrity in extreme conditions. Its chemically resistant membrane resists degradation from oils, lubricants and fuels \u2014 providing consistent, durable protection mission after mission,\u201d Friedman said in a provided statement. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Active soldier trials of the AWICS system are ongoing with the 11th Airborne\/Arctic Regions Test Center integration cell in Alaska; the Army Mountain Warfare School in Jericho, Vermont; and the 19th Special Forces Group in Bluffdale, Utah, Friedman said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSoldier feedback has been overwhelmingly positive,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The design of the jacket could make it a lighter, pack-friendly replacement for the Army\u2019s Level III
