Again, the ample ventilation and generous and comfortable neckline cut of the UNDR SERE jersey were appreciated as it allowed uninhibited movement, plenty of hot air to escape and cool air to come in, and the thicker, more heavy- weight forearm areas allowed for crawling without snagging or damage to the jersey and should hold up well. Wearers who order true-to-size may find the fit a little snug especially over pads and other protective clothing, and may want to work with UNDR owner Chris Rangel to ensure proper sizing or even moving up a size larger than other brands to ensure comfort and a little baggy bounce factor. By the time we finished our push and came off the field, my headband and the foam of my goggles were drenched in sweat, my tshirt was dripping and everything underneath my pack was, well, swampy. My SERE jersey was dry and was a huge factor in keeping me from overheating on the field on that hot summer day. No ripping, tears or other issues were found with either my SERE jersey or the prototype RECON pants UNDR sent for testing, throughout a day spent running, kneeling, crawling and creeping through everything from rocky dirt to soft mud and plenty of woods with prickly, sticky underbrush looking to grab ahold of a player’s gear. Bottom line? I was able to play all day, not pass out from heat exhaustion (or worse) and not worry about my gear, leaving me to focus on doing unto others before they did unto me – truly my favorite part of the game. For serious paintball players looking for durable, comfortable semi-or-fully custom clothing to play their paintball in, UNDR has been a great choice for a while and their new RECON pants and SERE jerseys will only add to their repertoire. Whether in the woods or inside the net, UNDR is worth a good look and their product continues to improve with each iteration. www.paintball.media 0109
