Atch 3 - LGRC Cadet Shorts Compression MNS_WMNS.pdf

This document is a Salient Characteristics specification for Compression Shorts issued by the United States Air Force Academy Cadet Uniforms Section on October 2, 2012. The specification details requirements for compression shorts to be used by athletes, with precise technical and performance specifications. The compression shorts must be made from nylon/elastane-type fabric, feature moisture-wicking material, have 4-way stretch elastic, be dark navy blue in color, and specifically designed as compression shorts.

The document specifies that the compression shorts are intended to keep thigh muscles warm, reduce muscle strain and fatigue, and incorporate performance technologies similar to NFL Combine Compression Shorts. The garments should wick sweat away from the body to minimize chafing and rashes. A specific requirement notes that female athletes need a shorter inseam of 2-4 inches. The custodian is USAF Academy in Colorado Springs, with the Cadet Uniforms Section as the preparing activity and Cadet Logistics Chief as the reviewing activity.
