AGSU Inventory Status Update: 15:30, 4 May 2022: Drastically diminished inventory levels and rapidly changing availability of raw materials and components of the Army Green Service Uniform (AGSU) have severely impacted our ability to ship orders within our normal time frame of five business days.
Due to these factors beyond our control, customers who must receive their AGSU or AGSU component by a specific date should first contact our Customer Service department to ascertain a feasible delivery date and, if necessary, adjust their plans accordingly. You can speak with a Customer Service representative 0830–1630 EST, Monday–Friday or submit a Customer Service inquiry using the "Contact Us" feature found at the top of each page, listing all the items in your order.
There is also is good news on the horizon. U.S. Army Natick Soldier Systems Center, more commonly referred to as simply NATICK, has authorized exceptions to procurement regulations to relieve bottlenecks and shortages in the AGSU supply chain, a move that should help us begin to return to normal shipping and handling times by the second or third week of May.
We appreciate your patience and understanding during these trying times and, as always, thank you for your service to our country!

The Salute Uniforms’ AGSU: The Best That Money Can Buy—Period
Don’t be fooled by uniform vendors that make vague claims about manufacturing the AGSU to “higher standards.”
Unlike previous uniforms featuring components that could be manufactured with materials of varying quality, the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Systems Center ("Natick" for short) opted to authorize only one material—the optimal one—for manufacturing each part of the AGSU. Simply put, there is no “higher standard” material any manufacturer could use and still receive Army certification for its products.
Quality of workmanship is the other major area that Natick focuses on intently during the certification process. Not only did our uniforms pass thorough and rigorous inspection, their excellent quality was also part of the reason that the Army has asked us to work with them on the design of new uniform components in the production pipeline. When it comes to quality of construction, we're ready to put our AGSUs up against those of any manufacturer or retailer.
Our AGSU is certified by the Army so you can shop with confidence.
Our commitment to quality means you can wear it with pride.
The Army Green Service Uniform
The U.S. Army Male Enlisted Green Service Uniform (AGSU) is nearly identical to the AGSU worn by Officers, with the primary differences being the addition of shoulder loops on Officer AGSU shirts and the lack of braid on the sleeves of the Enlisted AGSU Coat.
Commonly called “Pink and Greens,” the AGSU draws heavily upon the proud heritage forged by the United States Army in the 20th century. The design for the AGSU was approved on 11 November 2018, the 100th anniversary of the signing of the Armistice—an event whose arrival was unquestionably hastened by the bravery and courage displayed by hundreds of thousands of American troops fighting in France between 1917 and 1918. The look of the AGSU closely resembles the Army Service Uniform worn by Army Officers starting in the early 1930s, during World War II, and up until 1954 and the arrival of the old Army Class A Green uniform. The Army Green Service Uniform is being phased in over a period of ten years from the date of its approval. Soldiers and Officers will have until 2028 to replace their blue Army Service Uniforms, which will be designated as Dress uniforms from that point forward.
♦ ♦ ♦ ♦ About Natick Certification ♦ ♦ ♦ ♦
We worked closely with U.S. Army Natick Soldier Systems Center (NSSC), informally referred to as simply “Natick,” to earn certification for our AGSU ever since its authorization was announced in late 2018. Certification is your guarantee that our uniforms are manufactured with Army-approved materials and that their construction has met or surpassed Natick standards. It also allows our AGSUs to be sold at Army base Exchanges.
