#1 "The new operational underwear, which has been successfully trialled for comfort and design, is for wear in operations in hot desert and tropical conditions where regular adequate laundering may not be available. Anti-microbial capability inhibits bacterial and fungal infections common in such conditions as well as odour."

And there you have it. Unisex too.
