Hi Rick
About halfway down this Forum page is an English explanation, as good as any:

On one of my many romps up north in the 80's as a Cdn soldier, we towed along x2 US Rangers and x2 US Green Berets. One pair had US Arctic Kit (New, Hi-tech inflatable bits) and the other geared up in our 50s era kit. By day 3, they were all in our kit!!
Muks are simple and easy to use and easily the best design for arctic ops in the winter (because it's dry up there).
Now, hopefully
you'll never need them!!

Sorry; can't help you but most Surplus stores seem to carry a selection.
