Two New Navy Uniforms Coming

Sailors can expect to see two new uniforms in Navy Exchanges by next summer: a working uniform for Sailors E-1 to O-10, and a year round service uniform for Sailors E-6 and below. The working uniform, made of permanent press 50/50 nylon and cotton blend, will replace seven different working uniforms. Worn with a blue cotton t-shirt, it will include an eight-point cover, a black web belt with closed buckle, and smooth black leather boots. The year-round service uniform consists of a short-sleeve khaki shirt for males and an over-blouse for females. Both are made from a wash and wear 75/25 polyester and wool blend with permanent military creases. Males will wear black trousers, and females will wear beltless black slacks or optional beltless skirts. Both will wear a black unisex garrison cap and may wear a black relaxed-fit Eisenhower-style jacket.
