Monday, April 30th, 2018Arc’teryx LEAF Assault LT Uniform Featuring Gore Katana Fabric
Although we’ve mentioned the Assault LT ensemble by Arc’teryx LEAF a couple of times in the past, many don’t know that it is made with a fabric developed specifically for he military market by WL Gore & Associates, called Katana.
Katana incorporates ePTFE ePTFE (expanded polytetrafluoroethylene) fiber technology and is lightweight, breathable, fast drying and no melt/no drip making it great for use in hot environments. Essentially, the inclusion of ePTFE in the standard 50/50 NYCO, improves the blend. Arc’teryx further tuned the uniform with 520E Tweave and Cyberknit mesh.
The advantages of Katana are many:
-Low wet pick-up for faster dry time
-Faster dry time with moisture absorption
-High mechanical durability (break & tear strength)
-High strength to weight ratio (weight reduction)
-Low coefficient of friction offers low, wet cling and improved hand
-Tunable with other fiber blends inherent characteristics, like FR
Features:
-PPE compatible allowing the shirt to be functionally worn with body armour
-Low profile zip neck allowing collar to be worn either open or as a neck protector
-Arm cuff velcro closures allowing for fully enclosed sleeves
-Upper arm zip pockets allowing for convenient pocket accessibility when wearing PPE
-Upper arm IFF Velcro 4×4.5” (w/V-Lite™ retention ring) enhancing the retention of electronic IFF devices
-Daisy chain hard points (in upper arm pockets) allowing for the tying off of mission essential equipment
-Mesh pocket bag liners (upper arm pocketing) allowing for enhanced ventilation and reducing overall apparel weight when the shirt is wet
Features:
-Adjustable waist (c.2”) allowing for waist sizing flexibility
-Enhanced belt loops allowing for the use of the LEAF Rigger’s system
-Retention loops (sewn into waistline) allowing for the tying off of personal items
-Reinforced knees & gusseted crotch allowing for increased durability and enhancing end-user mobility
-Hand pockets (w/internal folding knife pocket) allowing for the secure carriage of a standard folding knife
-Seat pockets allowing for optional/extra storage
-Expandable cargo button pockets capable of providing dump pocket capability
-Draw cord ankle cuff closure (w/vertical retention tunnel for adjustment end) allowing for pants to be worn tightly with boots
-Mesh pocket bag/knee pad insert liners allowing for enhanced ventilation and reducing overall apparel weight when the pant is wet
-Soft knee pad insert capable allowing the end-user an option to insert soft knee pads
The Recce Shirt LT is made from the same Katana fabric as the other items and features a user removable zipper closure down the front and mesh breathability panels inside the dual chest pockets.

Armageddon Gear – Tacticooler
Friday, April 27th, 2018With all of the brouhaha surrounding coolers, we thought we’d show you an option from a company which is dedicated to the Second Amendment as well as supports the armed professional.
Meet the Tacticooler from Armageddon Gear.
It’s made with the same high-tech reflective insulation they use in their US Army issued P.U.S.S. Pad, It can be used as a dove stool, a gear bucket, or better yet, a beer bucket. Take it on the golf course to regain some of the man points you lost with those plaid pants and keep your cold ones frosty. It even has an expandable mesh pocket to lovingly cradle your balls. The Tacticooler is perfect for the back of the pickup, the deck of your fishing boat, or on the rack of the four wheeler for a day in the mud bog. Simply add ice and refreshments to the 5-gallon bucket (Bucket not pictured, but included with purchase!) into the Tacticooler and voila, ‘Merica!
Can be custom embroidered with your business logo, CB handle, Tinder username, favorite sports team, or just about anything else. Contact us for embroidery specifics. Like everything Armageddon Gear makes, the Tacticooler is proudly manufactured right here in the good ol’ USA!

Armageddon Gear x LFT Release 3 New Products
Wednesday, April 25th, 2018Lead Faucet Tactical Founder Dan Brokos has teamed up with Armageddon Gear to release three new nylon products. As with all things by Armageddon Gear, the LFT items are Made in the USA!
Dan originated the Brokos Belt and they’ve been made by a few companies over the years. But in this case, he has modernized the design for this new version from Armageddon Gear.
It’s only 3” wide and incorporates laser cut PALS compatible slots. Designed to work as either a standalone piece using the Tweave-covered padded liner belt (included) or in conjunction with the Velcro loop-faced inner belt, the Armageddon Gear Brokos Belt is lined with hook Velcro for stability. The polymer-reinforced outer belt is covered in a laser-cut Cordura laminate material that is segmented for use with belt-mounted holsters and other gear.
Package Contains:
LFT Armageddon Gear Brokos Outer Belt
LFT Armageddon Gear Brokos Inner Belt
LFT Armageddon Gear Brokos Padded Liner Belt
A pistol belt (sold separately) is required to complete your belt rig.
Available in Black and MultiCam, sizes Med-2XLarge.
The Dump Pouch is a great compliment to the Brokos Belt. Constructed of Mesh, it features a top opening reinforced with rigid scuba webbing liner to ensure the mouth of the pouch stays open.
PALS compatible, it can be rolled closed when not needed. Available in Coyote.
Last, but not least is a new sling. This 2-Point Sling is easily adjustable and ultralightweight, made from Hypalon, Nylon and Tweave. In fact, Armageddon Gear says the material is so light and pliable the rolled-up sling almost fits in a damn can of Copenhagen. Available in MultiCam.
Widget Wednesday: PTX Vest Power Manager, VPM-402
Wednesday, April 25th, 2018
The PTX VPM-402 is the intelligent, rugged, “man-worn”, combined data and power management solution.
The VPM’s smart USB hub interconnects user-worn data-enabled devices, as well as enabling their constant operability from a single battery. The VPM manages data pass through, prioritizes battery usage, reports power levels, and automatically alerts the operator to any issues. And because it integrates data and power in a single device, it eliminates the need for separate power and data cables –reducing The Battery Burden and streamlining the user’s gear load.
The VPM-402 uses standard USB protocols to pass data between connected devices – regardless of manufacturer – providing backward and forward technology integration. Like its “big brother, the Squad Power Manager, the Vest Power Manager also scavenges from any available power source – vehicle, aircraft, solar, etc. – to power devices and charge batteries.
Originally developed as a central component for the US Marine Corps’ “Marine Austere Patrolling System” program, the compact-sized VPM-402’s full-sized power and data management capability is now in use among JTAC and other extended fires teams with US and Partner Nation forces.
