Atch 1_Specifications_Shorts Compression MNS_WMNS.pdf

This is a specifications document from October 2012 detailing requirements for USAF Academy compression shorts. The document outlines technical requirements for athletic compression shorts to be worn by cadets, specifying they must be made from nylon/elastane-type fabric with moisture-wicking material, 4-way stretch elastic, and dark navy blue coloring throughout. The shorts should incorporate technology similar to NFL Combine Compression Shorts to reduce muscle strain and fatigue, with features to wick away sweat and prevent chafing.

Key specifications include form-fitting coverage from waist to mid-thigh, with female athletes requiring a shorter 2-4" inseam version. The document identifies the USAF Academy in Colorado Springs as the custodian, with the Cadet Uniforms Section (10 LRS/LGRCU) as the preparing activity and Cadet Logistics Chief (10LRS/LGRC) as the reviewing activity.
