Russian Army VKPO (VKBO) Layer 6 Water Proof and Wind Proof Suit EMR (Digital Flora)

This is the 6th layer of the VKPO all season 8 layer clothing system, which is standard issue to the modern Russian military. This layer is waterproof and windproof.  It is a shell layer used in heavy rain or snow, when preventing water from entering the suit is deemed more important than sweat evaporation from the body. Since this is waterproof instead of water resistant, it is not highly breathable. All zippers are covered with a membrane flab to increase water resistance at the point of the zipper.

Note: The material is waterproof but it does not seal around the entire body like a wet suit and therefore does not prevent water from getting through creases such as where the pants meet the boots, the waistline, and the ends of the sleeves. Therefore, if the user intends to wade through a river or remain dry while submerged, we recommend a one-piece wet suit.

We recommend testing the suit by blasting a water hose on it with a dry piece of clothing underneath. The clothing should remain dry and water should not seep through the grey-silver inner membrane.

Choose your layers carefully and you can survive any weather you encounter whether hunting, fishing, camping, or working in your own backyard.
