WHAT DOES THE MILITARY WEAR IN COLD WEATHER
The military doesn’t stop when temperatures drop. Whether at a base or on the move, soldiers must be equipped with the right gear to combat extreme weather conditions.
Proper equipment must do two key things: prevent serious conditions such as frostbite or hypothermia and allow for uninterrupted mobility without the risk of overheating. If you’re stocked with effective extreme cold weather military gear, you’ll have an edge over any unprepared adversaries in the field.
ADS, Inc. provides equipment, procurement, logistics and supply chain solutions for your cold weather needs. With our custom kits, you’re guaranteed to be outfitted with proven, standardized gear that fits into your current operations.
There are three main categories of cold weather military gear built to protect personnel against even the cruelest of conditions.

At the base of great extreme weather gear is great footwear. With insulated items built for sleep and mobility, protecting your feet is easy.
