About this file
This is a Department of Defense Clothing and Textiles product specification for ARTC Midweight Drawers (L3), product code AR-ETP-25-098, designed for Army use as a cold weather base layer garment. The specification covers unisex midweight tapered pants available in sizes XXS to 4XL with multiple length/stature combinations (Short, Regular, Long, and XLong). The drawers feature a two-ply functional fly and are intended to be worn as part of the ARTC system with mesh and/or lightweight base layer drawers underneath.
The garment is constructed primarily from ARTC Diamond Quilt Knit (L3) in a 85/15 cotton/polyester blend for the main fabric, with Jersey Knit (65/35 Tencel Lyocell/Cocona Polyester) used for the under-fly lining. Key components include 1¼-inch wide elastic for the waistband and polyester TEX 24 thread in coyote color (476/498). Construction involves multiple specialized stitching techniques including merrow seams, cover stitches, and specific bartacks at leg hems and waist seams. The specification includes detailed finished dimension tolerances, grade rules varying by size, and dimensional stability testing requirements (maximum 12% shrinkage in course, 5% in wales after five home laundering cycles). Quality requirements mandate compliance with Acceptance Quality Limits, toxicity testing per 40 CFR §798.2250 and §798.4100, and visual shade matching using AATCC EP9. The label must be Type VI Class 15 per MIL-DTL-32075 and include an 8-point font use and care instructions with a ½-inch QR code, positioned from the top of the waistband at the center back waist seam outside.
