DALLAS – Army and Air Force National Guard, U.S. Army Reserve and Air Force Reserve Component service members, regardless of active status or rank, can buy uniforms and uniform items online through the Army & Air Force Exchange Service at www.ShopMyExchange.com.

Each branch of service provides separate funding to establish and operate Military Clothing Stores (MCS) to service their personnel. According to Army Regulation 700-84, Ch. 2-2, b and Air Force Manual 23-110 National Guard, USAR and AFRC locations are not authorized an MCS.

The lone exception to the regulation is for Soldiers who are Title 10 or 32 active status and are therefore authorized to purchase uniforms at an MCS. Additionally, commercial, non-DLATs uniform accessories such as rank, insignia, PT gear and footwear can be purchased at any MCS regardless of duty status.

The Army & Air Force Exchange Service operates Military Clothing stores on behalf of the services and is the only source for government-certified, authentic uniforms. The Exchange is required to follow all applicable regulations as they pertain to the sale of uniforms and other Military Clothing items.
