I wish cold weather gloves were jet fuel resistant, stupid gas is already taking some of the waterproofing off of my 2 week old Gore-Tex pants/coat. RRrrrrr

Their stuff is top notch and I have never been disappointed with the many items I've purchased from them.
The issue is that I need abrasion-resistant gloves that I can work in, and won't soak up dirt and whatnot (fleece is a no-go). I basically need something with a leather palm and fingertips, removable liner, waterproof, etc. And the good gloves around that price range are like $100+. And I need a windproof baclacava, which will most likely be Outdoor Research. Gee, I wish the Air Force actually issued us the stuff we need. Longjohns + Gortex will only get you so far.

It's funny, because a buddy of mine from HS that joined a year after I did, got 'deployed' to Germany and got to live in a 4-star hotel. I've wasted 8 months of my life in the desert, in a tent. So there.
