“Given the green light back in 2005, MARS – an acronym for Military Alpine Recce System, is the product of what was dubbed “The Lost Arrow Project” by the US military’s Special Operations Command (SOCOM). Drafting in 45+ years of experience in manufacturing outdoor-ready garments, Patagonia’s MARS is a multi-level Protective Combat Uniform - or PCU for short - which comprises 6 “Levels” of protection for the wearer. Whilst it was developed as a full system, the pieces don’t necessarily have to be worn in conjunction with one another, wearers can pick and choose which items they’d like to reap the benefits of” (Ali George Hinkins, Purpose-Built and Field-Tested Apparel | Patagonia’s MARS Project).
Please carefully review product descriptions, photos, and measurements before purchasing to ensure a proper fit and satisfaction. Please note that items for sale are vintage/pre-owned in nature, with most being previously worn. Each garment is carefully inspected during the listing process for imperfections/flaws which are then photographed and/or noted in the item's description. See the “Condition Ratings” tab for more information.
Please refer to the measurements included in the description to ensure a proper fit, as vintage sizing frequently differs slightly from modern sizing. Sizes listed in the product title are based on the “best fits a” size rather than the tag size. To ensure a proper fit, we strongly recommend comparing the provided measurements to a similar garment of your own that fits to your liking. For more information, visit the “How to Measure” tab.
