This should be obvious, but if it has "Special Ops" in the name, chances are it's not combat proven. I personally don't have much experience with Rothco products other than a few things I've seen in Army surplus stores. I equate them to something like other civilian type "tactical" clothing like 5.11 products: okay for day to day use, paintball, air soft, light hiking and such, etc., but I would never consider using them for a long ruck in a combat or some other similarly harsh environment. If your work or hobbies demand more of your gear, I'd recommend considering the other brands mentioned in this video. You'll pay more, probably in the neighborhood of $300-400 for something comparable to this soft shell knock off, but it'll certainly last longer and take a lot more abuse in the field.
