Combat Flip Flops Releases the 100% Afghan Cashmere Shemagh

Wednesday, September 13th, 2023

This 100% Afghan Cashmere Shemagh is sourced and loomed in Kabul, Afghanistan. Prior to the fall of Kabul, Combat Flip Flops worked to set up a full supply chain in Afghanistan to support cashmere goat herders, workers to harvest the material, and looms to weave the finest scarf on the market.

Two weeks prior to the fall of Afghanistan, Combat Flip Flops received the first samples, then everything fell apart…

” ‘SURRENDER’ IS NOT A RANGER WORD.”

While the rest of the world gave up on our Afghan partners, Combat Flip Flops didn’t. After two years of navigating every problem you could imagine in Afghanistan while enduring a significant tactical pause, the Kabul team is finally back to work.

Grayman & Company – Polo Shirt

Saturday, September 2nd, 2023

When I purchased my Polo Shirt a few years ago from Grayman & Co, I looked at it as more of a business casual item than something greenside. But then I ran across this photo and realized, why the heck not?

Granted, it’s not cheap, but it is very well made, from 100% Merino Wool. And for the guys who get triggered by this, it’s made in Italy (egad!).

In addition to being very comfortable, the open weave leaves it quite breathable, making it a great four season shirt.

As for operational features, the Polo incorporates slim wire-management loops, serged into the side-seams and shoulder. Additionally, webbing loops for microphone clips are sewn into the placket and under the collar flaps and the collar band features a wire pass-through channel.

Offered in Light Grey, Taupe (which I bought to blend with a wider variety of pants and jackets), Green, Very Dark Green, Dark Grey, and Very Dark Blue.

Sizing is XS -XXL in short, regular, and long lengths.

Designed with comfort and utility at their core, the Covert MK1s are manufactured from high grade, wicking, flexible and fast drying sports fabric.

The inner pubic stash pocket is the most discrete secretion on the MK1s, whilst still allowing ease of access. Around the waistband there are 9 slots for small items such as handcuff keys, SD & sim cards, shims etc. These slots are designed with ease of access in mind, but utilise elastic tension and bodyform to keep items secure.
