Upper waist area and small from pockets.



Inside these pockets are the height adjusters for the knee area.



Rear of knee area with velcro adjusters.

Lower ankle pockets.



Large side pockets which have a small flat internal pocket for GPS? or maybe small cell phone.



Internal shock cord adjuster, and slotted buttons.



Waist velcro ajusters and padded back area.

Ankle pockets and cuff adjusters.



Fly, black writting is my way to keep sets together.



Hand pockets.

Thanks for sharing Bolty.

If I know NZDF items, then this uniform will be difficult to obtain.

Finally got to have a good look at the new MCU today.  Found the smock to be quite thin but i guess ill found out in a month or so when i get mine.....

Training pants?Is their a different operational pants??

Yeah the operational pants are FR, so use and abuse the trg pants till deployment. Some trades get the FR gear for use already (Armoured Crews, Pet Ops, High Readiness)  Im going to put up the other items as well, Im home sick with a lung infection and there fark all on TV.

and your up this early...

Wife is a early riser, once Im awake Im awake. Ill nana nap later. Had MySky the cricket so I could stuger out on the couch all day but the farking rain has toasted that idea.

lol fair enough.  At least your not out in the rain today!

I was suppose to a range shoot at Linton, was looking forward to using some of the other new items with the MVS to see how they interfaced together.

What time is it there lads?Your last post here Bolty read 19.32.
BTW Its pissing rain here today as well after two weeks of a heatwave!
Anyway.I like the pants.Pocket design looks good as does the padded waist.I have to say that I am not keen on the velcro ankles and the removable kneepads.Too unmilitary looking IMHO but that's just because I am too used to using twisties.Looks are less important than functionality though.
