ASTEC AMERICA Launches "Enlisted Dress Blue" – Revolutionizing Uniform Comfort & Durability for Service Members

Denver, CO – October 26, 2023 – ASTEC AMERICA LLC, a leading innovator in advanced textile solutions, today announced the launch of its groundbreaking new product: “Enlisted Dress Blue.” Designed specifically for the demanding needs of enlisted personnel across all branches of the U.S. military, this isn’t just another uniform – it’s a total overhaul of comfort, durability, and performance. For years, service members have voiced concerns about the fit, feel, and longevity of their dress blues. ASTEC AMERICA listened. We spent the last three years, based right here in Denver at our 1595 Wynkoop St. facility, working directly with active-duty personnel, conducting field tests, and pouring over feedback. The result? A uniform that feels good, looks sharp, and lasts. You can reach us at 254-634-2299 if you have any questions. What Makes "Enlisted Dress Blue" Different? Let’s be real, standard dress blues can be… uncomfortable. They’re often stiff, restrict movement, and frankly, don't breathe well. We tackled those problems head-on. Here's how: Next-Gen Fabric Blend: Forget the scratchy wool blends of the past. "Enlisted Dress Blue" utilizes a unique poly-wool blend, incorporating cutting-edge moisture-wicking technology. This means service members stay cool and dry, even during long days of duty or ceremonial events. We’re talking seriously comfortable. Enhanced Durability: We know uniforms take a beating. “Enlisted Dress Blue” is constructed with reinforced stitching and a heavier weight fabric, significantly increasing its resistance to wear and tear. We’ve subjected it to rigorous testing – think simulated field conditions, repeated washings, and stress tests – and it consistently outperforms traditional materials. It's built to last through multiple deployments and years of service. Optimized Fit & Mobility: We didn't just copy the old cut. We completely revamped the pattern, working with ergonomic experts to create a uniform that allows for a full range of motion. Whether you're standing at attention, conducting inspections, or maneuvering in tight spaces, "Enlisted Dress Blue" moves with you. We’ve also offered a broader range of sizes, ensuring a proper fit for everyone. No more feeling restricted or looking sloppy. Fade-Resistant Color: Maintaining a crisp, professional appearance is crucial. "Enlisted Dress Blue" is treated with a special dye and finish that resists fading, even with repeated exposure to sunlight and washing. That means the uniform will look sharp and new for longer, saving the service member – and the military – money in the long run. Reduced Ironing: Let's be honest, nobody wants to spend hours ironing. The fabric is designed to resist wrinkling, significantly reducing the need for ironing. A quick touch-up is all it usually needs, saving valuable time and effort. ASTEC AMERICA: Beyond Uniforms – A Commitment to Innovation ASTEC AMERICA isn’t just a textile company; we’re a solutions provider.

This isn’t just about a uniform; it’s about enhancing performance, improving comfort, and showing our gratitude for their service.” Field Test Results: Real Feedback from Real Service Members We didn't just design "Enlisted Dress Blue" in a lab. We put it to the test with actual service members. Here’s what they had to say: “This uniform is a game-changer. It’s so much more comfortable than what we’ve been wearing. I can actually move freely without feeling restricted.” – Sergeant First Class, US Army “I was skeptical at first, but after wearing this uniform for a week, I’m a believer. It stays looking sharp even after a long day, and I don’t have to iron it every night.” – Petty Officer Second Class, US Navy “The fit is perfect! I’ve always struggled to find a uniform that fits me properly, but this one is spot on.” – Lance Corporal, US Marine Corps “I was worried about the durability, but it’s held up incredibly well.
