The Navy is making newly designed Service Khaki slacks available to female sailors, adding back pockets to the uniform trousers. The change also includes updated “modern fit sizing,” according to reporting from military outlets.
The outlets describe the update as a product offering change, not a policy shift for existing uniforms. Both sources highlight the same customer-facing improvements—back pockets and revised sizing—positioning the release as an expansion of what female sailors can purchase for the Service Khaki uniform.
While the articles focus on the availability and features of the redesigned garment, they do not provide differing details about timing, procurement steps, or whether older versions can be worn alongside the new design. The shared emphasis is that the slacks are now offered for purchase and that the design addresses pocket availability and fit.
