Consilium clothing - experts in workwear.

US sailors stationed in Pearl Harbour, Hawaii, have been offered the chance to purchase a range of new workwear.

Service men and women visited the Navy Exchange (NEX) Uniform Shop aboard Naval Station Pearl Harbour to purchase the new service uniforms.

Intended for year-round usage, the workwear is to replace the summer white and blue uniforms which sailors have been wearing up to now

Channell Beaugard, personnel Specialist 1st Class (EXW) assigned to Naval Station Pearl Harbor, said: "The comfort level for the uniform is excellent."

"Also, the white uniforms are harder to keep clean because they get dirty too easy," she added.
"These colours will be much easier to maintain."

"It was a steady flow of sailors since we opened the doors," said Julie Herring, manager of the uniform shop. "I expect that once other sailors see people wearing them, they'll come buy it for themselves."

The new uniforms will become a mandatory requirement for all Navy service men and women by July 2010.
