Back to the thread: I saw the pants they were supposedly going to wear about a month and a half ago. The Honigs table at a meeting had some demos of the shirt, knickers, and pants they were supposedly going to wear (do a search for a thread I started on this). Looks like they either wised up or the rank and file told them they wouldn't wear them.
Good. I don't like the shirt much, but its a reasonable alternative. The pants and knickers was a totally stupid idea.

I have to admit, sometimes I think the knickers time has passed, at least in very cold or wet weather. Yes, tradition is important but sometimes a change or two is in order. Personally I wish I could wear some windproof/waterproof sweats that keep the water and/or snow off my legs. I also think a darker color would be a lot easier to clean when an extremely muddy field is encountered.
Anyway, those are just my ramblings. I realize things will probably never change.
