Bought a Khaki Aertex shirt from What Price Glory back in 2014, the fabric and shade was prefect comparing to the original, can't say it's 100% cotton but certainly cotton-rich. However, their recent run of Khaki & JG Aertex garments have switched to a more polyester-like material, although the weave is still correct Aertex cellular weave. I cut a small piece of fabric from the new run garment for burning test, it's dripping plastic...Given the fact that they didn't raise price over the years, inflation probably took a toll on the material. Just wish I'd bought more before they've switched material.

This will all be about the Jungle underpants.... because lets face it you have got to have good draws in a place like that... after your weapons and rain weather kit is sorted.
