SEALS don't sell those qwear anoraks - they sell a special smock they designed themselves:


and the blurb on their website says:
The 4.1 version of the smock is made using authentic Canadian Forces 65/35 NYCO Twill CADPAT TW (much more durable than the standard Combat Cloth used for combat uniforms), which is treated with Quarpel for excellent wind and water resistance. It is also specifically designed with Canadian Forces' personnel in mind, and includes a rank epaulet on the front, velcro brassard keeper/flag patch on the left shoulder, and velcro strip for the name tag above the right chest pocket.
That's different from the one they used to have. I recall their having a cheaper crappier one a couple years ago. A couple guys on the team have the anorak, it's junk. Explains why they don't wear them.
