First Lite Fusion

Sunday, January 18th, 2015

First Lite makes wool hunting clothing. First Lite’s wares have caught the eye of some SOF personnel who appreciate the many benefits of wool. Now, First Lite has introduced a proprietary camouflage pattern.

No pixels. No trees. Designed exclusively for First Lite, Fusion is a proprietary mix of shapes and colors designed to obliterate the human shape.

Apparently, the signature feature of this camouflage is its “crackalature”. They’ve got some additional info over at www.firstlite.com/first-lite-fusion so go read up on it.

If checking out this pattern wasn’t a good enough reason to visit them at SHOT Show, they’ll host a keg at 4PM on Wednesday in booth 10053, right by Magpul.

Cub Cubs Hoodie Available for Pre-Order

Wednesday, January 14th, 2015

As parents we look at our children as miniature versions of ourselves and often look for clothing and toys that reflect our interests. Cub Cubs brand was created last year by Polly Taylor to provide quality, American made adventure gear for kids.

This Hoodie is made from 50% cotton 50% polyester and offered in Basalt Gray (dark heather gray) with a white contrast zipper. What’s cool is that it comes right from the factory, ready to sport morale patches just like mom or dad, with 4″ x 3″ black loop field securely stitched on the left sleeve. The right sleeve sports the Cub Cubs acorn logo.

These run a bit small, so if in doubt, order up. Sizes 2-16 (AA adult sizes adjusted to match bigger cub sizes)

ESTIMATED SHIP DATE IS FEBRUARY 6TH.

PCU Levels 1 & 2 Available Now from Massif

Thursday, January 8th, 2015

Although Massif is well known for their FR garments, many do not realize that they were called upon by USSOCOM in 2011 to help modernize the multi-level Protective Combat Uniform. In addition to the Level 7 garments we recently featured, Massif also manufactures the non-FR Level 1 and 2 items. Although the designs remain simple, they achieve functionality and comfort due to the little things. For example, across the span of garments in the system, seams don’t fall one atop the other despite their ergonomic shape. Additionally, the Polartec fabrics chosen for these garments revolve around moisture management featuring excellent wicking and air permeability properties.

Now, the actual garments issued to SOF, are available to individuals as well as units and agencies not included in the original program.
