Stuff I Like – TASC Performance Boxer Briefs

Wednesday, July 8th, 2015

I first discovered TASC Performance garments in early 2012 and I’ve been wearing them ever since. In fact, although I do own a couple of pairs of Merino Wool next-to-skin layers, TASC Boxer Briefs are my preferred daily wear. They are extremely comfortable and feature a flowmesh panel at the front.

  
Made from 55% Organic Cotton/40% Viscose from Bamboo/5% Lycra Spandex the Boxer Briefs are offered in sizes Small – XXLarge in White, Black, Heather Grey and Kryptonite.

Friday, July 3rd, 2015

FS_ForagerHat_2387

FirstSpear’s Low Profile Forager Cap is just as feature-rich and functional as the larger Standard Size Forager, but with a .5″ reduction at all points and all the corresponding bulk removed. In layman’s terms, the Low Profile cap is more like a ballcap when compared to the Standard cap, which is analogous to a Patrol Cap.

ForagerSizing

The Low Profile Forager Cap is available in Black, Coyote, and MultiCam.

Additionally, in honor of Independence Day, FirstSpear is offering FREE domestic ground shipping on the purchase any Forager Cap through the weekend.

Something Wicked Cool This Way Comes – Get Ready for the MultiCam Force 10 Pants from Triple Aught Design

Thursday, July 2nd, 2015

Hold on to your wallets ladies and gentlemen, it’s happening. Triple Aught Design is poised to launch the MultiCam version of the Force 10 pant we told you about during last month’s Blade Show.

  

Made from genuine MultiCam print 50/50 NYCO fabric in the classic Force 10 design.

Features:

Ample Storage: Eight pockets provide ample storage, including two hidden Passport Pockets to hold personal documents discretely. Internal pocket dividers in the cargo pockets secure spare magazines, radios, flashlights, or other gear. Pass-through slots on the cargo flaps accommodate longer items and provide access to strategically placed D-rings for dummy cording gear.

Repairable: Our Canadian tape style buttons are secured on nylon webbing with bartacks for greater staying power and we include a slotted repair button that quickly slides onto the webbing for easy repair in the field.

Versatile Design: The cargo pockets lay flat creating a streamlined look and incorporate bellowed design allowing for expanded storage space. We created a slide-through slot at the top of the pocket to allow for quick and easy access to linear shaped items like a long flashlight or ruler.

Added Protection: Inserts at the knees accommodate T-Pro Armor Pads for increased protection and less strain on your body.

These launch tomorrow, Thursday, 20150702, at 0900 Pacific. Just in time for Independence Day. They’ll be available then, on the Force 10 page. TAD hasn’t offered MutiCam in years so please note that the pricing of the MultiCam pants will be $140. This is a bit higher than the solid colors and that’s due to material costs. Shipping starts Wednesday, 20150708.

Ranger Green Anorak Sighting!

Tuesday, June 30th, 2015

  
I really like the Huron Approach Anorak from TYR Tactical and this sample in Ranger Green looks great!

Stuff I Like – Under Armour’s Fish Hunter Cargo Shorts

Tuesday, June 30th, 2015

I’m a big fan of Tigerstripe so when I found these at a Sportsman’s Warehouse during a recent trip to Bozeman, I picked them up.  

 
Made from a DWR treated, 30+ UFP, Salt and Chlorine resistant fabric, the shorts are very comfortable. In fact, I’m wearing them right now. There’s a little bit of mechanical stretch. They are board short length and feature cargo pockets on either thigh with snap closures as well as mesh-lined front slash pockets and a single rear pocket. Very comfy.

THE STRIKER HT AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM

THE STRIKER HT AIR CIRCULATION SYSTEM.

The Striker HT Combat Pants are equipped with a new and very “cool” air flow system. Mesh lined openings in the groin area, together with opening knee protector pockets generate a cooling air flow in your upper leg and groin area with every step you take.

THE UF PRO® 3-LAYER KNEE PROTECTION SYSTEM

THE UF PRO® 3-LAYER KNEE PROTECTION SYSTEM.

The Striker HT combat pants can be upgraded with two different knee pads:

The UF PRO® Flex- Pads offer reliable and comfortable protection against impacts and additional cushioning while kneeling.

Both layers are protected with a CORDURA® face fabric which provides extreme abrasion resistance.

UF PRO® HYBRID/DESIGN.

Three different fabric technologies are used in the Striker HT Pants:

The breathable and durable Schoeller®-dynamic stretch material in the back area makes sure the pants follow all your moves. For durability and abrasion resistance the knee and instep area are reinforced with CORDURA® fabric. A lightweight Polyester/Cotton or Nylon/Cotton fabric for the camouflage versions offers excellent breathability and wear comfort.

POCKET CONFIGURATION.

The Striker HT Combat Pants are equipped with a total of 14 pockets, and not only the number is impressive but their functionality, storage capacity and accessibility make this pocket configuration completely unique.
