Not that I'm aware of Lee? The only label on the garment is shown above and there's nothing to indicate a brand or what have you.

I have a warm weather bag but seen lately on eBay that there are a few Snugpak bags being classed as issued? With yours bring 2011, I wondered if it was one of these...The Snugpak factory is literally down the road, I might nip in and see if they have any...

There was one on tonight for £20 buy it now plus £6 p and p...so not too badly priced, I want to get one but no pics of a NSN label, been stung a couple of times like that! Just makes me wonder as it is a wide spread of people putting them on, not just one guy?!
The shop is just a warehouse, small place in a town called Silsden, they hold a sale once a year before Christmas, scary the kit they sell and the prices they go for...I was in there a few weeks ago to get a factory second Sleeka Lite (£25 with stuff sack) and they had a Sleeka in the new ATACS camo which they are supplying to the Americans...so the Forman told me!! He wanted £65 for it!!

Snugpak now sell online, have a look, the new ATACS camo is awesome! I think the Sleeka in the ATACS retails about £110 so it wasn't a bad price he offered it to me for!! the ATACS and Multicam garments cost slightly more due to them have to either import the pattern or buy it themselves...I think!!

Hey George, just had a conversation with fellow collector, Snugpak are Issuing the Warm Weather bag, apparently there is no NSN label on the bag or compression sack, it's on the manufacturers label when issued new?!
