While the watch is water resistant to 50 meters, Extreme Outfitters is adamant that this is not a dive watch but it looks like a great field watch.

NavExFor 2012 Is Coming – Don’t Miss The Boat

Tuesday, February 14th, 2012

Now in its sixth year, NavExFor is one of our favorite tradeshows for a couple of reasons. For one thing, it is the only event focused specifically on Naval Expeditionary Forces. Additionally, Lodestar Group who puts the show on, always makes sure to lay on some great guest speakers. Each year they have a theme and this year’s is “Innovation in Constrained Environments” which can mean a lot of things but I think we’ll see a lot on doing more with what we have both in the form of forces and gear. I know they are also going to be taking a look at power programs.

Finally, we love this show because it’s right here in our backyard and very close to Joint Base Little Creek Ft Story, home of Navy Expeditionary Combat Command.

Make sure you plan to attend NavExFor 2012, March 13-14, 2012 at the Virginia Beach Convention Center, Virginia Beach, VA. Register now.

215 Gear Releases Operator’s Shirt, Long Sleeve

Monday, February 13th, 2012

Billed as a “as a lightweight, feature filled shirt for today’s Barrel Chested Freedom Fighter” they’re not kidding. Not only is it made from CoolMaxÂ® fabric, they rely on flat seam stitching and a tagless design to eliminate the potential for “hot spots”. 215 Gear has also added a 4″ x 4″ loop Velcro for IFF and unit patches. Finally, they’ve given this shirt a generous cut so make sure you order one size smaller if you are looking for a more snug fit.

Can You Believe LL Bean is 100 Years Old?

Monday, February 13th, 2012

It seems that since the turn of this latest century every year we find ourselves celebrating the centennial of one American institution after another. This year is no different. In 1911 outdoorsman LL Bean “invented” the Maine Hunting Boot by combining shoe rubbers with 7-1/2″ leather tops to keep his feet dry while hunting. Before long others wanted the boots and in 1912 he sent out his first mailer. The rest is history.

LL Bean is commemorating their 100th anniversary in a big way by producing a line of reproduction products that look like they’ll give you another 100 years of service.
