Issued but not used!? What madness is that!? :O
I made a point of at least trying every issued item, even those that had developed a bad reputation. Uncovered a few gems that way such as the light weight sleeping bag (and cover) aka "horse blanket". Most didn't use them (ok, everyone except me) because they were rough and scratchy. Well, after a run through the wash to clean it, it was soft, warm, compact, and above all, light! Awesome piece of kit. Even better, it was the perfect size to fit over the heavy winter sleeping bag as an additional layer of warm goodness!
In my opinion, if it's issued, it's there to be used!
