We began outfitting men and women in the military during World War II and look forward to expanding our offerings in the tactical segment by meeting the needs of today’s law enforcement officers.”
The new tactical collection from Dickies includes:

Not only is this collection designed to meet the needs of law enforcement officers, the purpose-built apparel was tested by U.S. sworn officers throughout the U.S.
“Our new tactical line underwent extensive testing with law enforcement officers across America, and their feedback was integral to the final design elements of the line. We were pleased to learn that a large number of the officers tested have high awareness of our brand and wear Dickies while off the job,” added Smith.

Last week, the Department of the Air Force awarded ADS Inc a contract for $1,908,872.41 to deliver non-FR Combat Shirts under the Defensor Fortis-Load Carrying System 2 program.
