Qore Performance Launches ICESLEEVES: Year-Round Thermoregulation Sleeves for Cooling and Heating in Any Environment

Monday, September 1st, 2025

Knoxville, TN — Qore Performance, Inc. announces the launch of ICESLEEVES, a new modular thermoregulation solution engineered to deliver cooling and heating exactly where it counts: your body’s pulse points. ICESLEEVES draw from combat-proven TCCC protocols and are optimized for real-world application across military, industrial, tactical, and athletic environments.

Designed for standalone use or integration with Qore Performance’s larger IceAge Ecosystem, ICESLEEVES deliver precision temperature control while preserving hydration, mobility, and mental clarity in extreme climates.

Precision Cooling and Heating
ICESLEEVES regulate core temperature by targeting the brachial and ulnar/radial arterial complexes—commonly known as pulse points.

  • Cooling: Insert conventional ice cubes into built-in pockets for conductive and evaporative cooling, lowering core temperature in hot, dry conditions.
  • Heating: In cold environments, insert disposable hand warmers (sold separately) to apply conductive warmth directly to circulating blood.
  • Evaporative Advantage: As ice melts, it draws heat away from the body through conduction. The resulting meltwater then evaporates from the fabric and skin surface, absorbing additional heat and accelerating cooling—especially in hot, dry conditions.

Subtle, Low-Profile Design
Built for year-round use, ICESLEEVES are slim enough to be worn on their own or discreetly under uniforms, outerwear, or armor—without adding bulk or limiting mobility.

  • UPF 50 Rating: Provides chemical-free sun protection.
  • Modular Compatibility: Pair with ICEPLATE® or ICEFLASK™ to build a complete, multi-point thermoregulation system.
  • Universal Application: Ideal for military, law enforcement, QSR drive-thru operators, CrossFit athletes, skiers, snowboarders, runners, hikers, backpackers, and more.

“ICESLEEVES were developed to give users across all industries the ability to control their thermal environment without compromising mobility or uniform requirements,” said Austin Pitsch, Marketing Manager at Qore Performance, Inc. “Whether you’re in a drive-thru window in the summer or standing post in sub-freezing temperatures, ICESLEEVES provide critical environmental inoculation with zero bulk.”

ICESLEEVES are available now exclusively at QorePerformance.com.

MATBOCK Monday: 60mm & 81mm Mortar Training with the MWAD

Monday, September 1st, 2025

Over the last few months we have been out with various units conducting mortar training using the digital indirect fire sight called the Multi-weapon Aiming Device (MWAD).

Software Integration with ATAK & NettWarrior:

The MWAD utilizes the current NettWarrior Tactical Scalable Mobile (TSM) adhoc network and NettWarrior DAPS Gen2 Navigation set for secured communication and PNT (Position Navigation and timing).

Another cool feature is the Dismounted Assured, Positioning, Navigation, and Timing System (DAPS) gen2 utilizes Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) which would allow the MWAD to connect to the only GPS in the world that uses the new M-code (military code). Currently, gun lines use the DAGR, which is an easily jammed p/y code.

The MWAD can already function on the NettWarrior ensemble and is ready for the DoD’s next generation of M-code satellite vehicles.

60mm with DAPs:

81mm Training:

MCB Quantico Live Fire of Scorpion Light Mobile Mortar System

Friday, August 29th, 2025

Last week, Global Military Products and Polaris Government and Defense were invited to participate in a live-fire demonstration on Marine Corps Base Quantico in conjunction with the Marine Gunners Symposium.

On one of Quantico’s 43 live ranges, a group of Marine gunners witnessed the Scorpion Light mobile mortar system in action, demonstrating the shoot and scoot capabilities of the system. Mounted on the Polaris MRZR Alpha 6×6, the fully integrated platform provides mobility, lethality, operator safety and air transportability. The rapid-fire control system is designed to elevate operational efficiency, while the expanded payload of the MRZR Alpha 6×6 variant allows for 48 mortars to also be transported.

More on the Scorpion Light

The Scorpion Light – known internationally as the Alakran – mobile mortar system has been combat proven across countries in Europe and the Middle East, showing its reliability and effectiveness in diverse and hostile environments. Built with durable materials and rugged construction to withstand extreme temperatures, dust, and harsh conditions, its robust design and resilient technologies make it a durable weapon that can withstand the rigors of combat and remain effective. The mobile mortar system can fire 8 rounds and relocate in under 2 minutes. The dual system can integrate 120mm and 81mm smoothbore or rifled mortars in a very simple operation, providing high firepower and making it a powerful tool for neutralizing enemy targets.

More on the MRZR Alpha 6×6

The MRZR Alpha 6×6 is a two-seat platform with a 65 percent larger cargo bed optimized for heavier systems and payloads, like the Scorpion Light. The vehicle has 3,600 lbs (about 1632.93 kg) of payload available, with 3,000 lbs (about 1360.78 kg) of that available in the extended cargo bed. The third axle and short wheelbase also have a positive impact on mobility, decreasing the contact pressure per tire for enhanced performance in soft soil, mud and bogs. The MRZR Alpha 6×6 maintains top speed and air transportability and has more than 90% parts commonality with the base MRZR Alpha. Expeditionary warfighters operating worldwide in austere environments require modular platforms that can adjust to multiple environments and modes of transport – tactical air, fixed wing plane and ship – now more than ever.

FirstSpear Friday Focus: Woodland Camo Speartip Trucker Hat

Friday, August 29th, 2025

The WOODLAND CAMO SPEARTIP TRUCKER HAT is a no-nonsense, range-ready piece of kit designed with function and form in mind. Built on a structured six-panel chassis, it offers a mid-profile fit that works well with a variety of head shapes and helmet hair situations.

The mesh back keeps airflow steady, making it a solid choice for extended wear in hot or humid environments. Whether you’re running drills or just moving between locations, the breathable design helps regulate heat without sacrificing durability.

The Permacurv visor holds its shape under pressure, giving you a consistent brim curve that shields glare without flopping or warping. With a snapback closure, it’s easy to adjust on the fly—even one-handed. The offset Icon Speartip PVC patch adds a subtle nod to your tribe without screaming for attention, keeping the profile professional and purpose-built.

The woodland camo pattern gives it a classic, field-forward look that blends into both operational and everyday settings. Whether you’re spotting for a shooter or grabbing chow, this lid holds its own without getting in the way. The mid-profile structure also fits comfortably under over-the-ear hearing protection, making it ideal for time on the range. Rugged where it counts, breathable where it matters, and always mission-ready.
