Take the chill off during cold, damp winter months with our 100-percent Mil-Spec U.S. Navy scarf. Authorized for wear under Reefers/Peacoats, Overcoats, Jackets, and All-Weather Coats by Article 3501.43 of the United States Navy Uniform Regulations, our white acrylic scarf combines durability and ease of care with a soft texture that provides plenty of warmth when you need it most. Indeed, acrylic has become a favorite synthetic fabric choice among makers of faux furs because of these very qualities.
Regulations do make it clear that the white scarf may be worn only with an outer garment—which makes it somewhat puzzling that the scarf is considered an optional item for the Summer White uniform worn by male and female Officers and CPOs. Apparently there are some locations where the Summer White is worn that have weather with at least some chill; other optional items for the Summer White include earmuffs and the Cold Weather Parka.
