 Welcome to All Hands Update, I'm Petty Officer Jen Blake. Uniform changes are coming and you may have to update your seabag. Navy officials are working to approve new uniform items and update some older ones. Changes will include a new warm-up suit for PT, a cold weather parka, an overhaul of the female chiefs and officers dressed whites, and lightweight NWUs for tropical environments. The new warm-up suit will closely resemble the running suit the Marines currently wear, and the new parka will be a black version of the Coast Guard's three-in-one parka. The new female chiefs and officers dressed whites will be redesigned to look more like their male counterparts dressed whites, and the lightweight NWUs are designed to be more breathable and cooler. These new plans come shortly after the female wear test of the Dixie Cup and Dress Blue uniform and will modernize sailor seabags. The changes are scheduled to take place as early as next year.
