FirstSpear Friday Focus – ACM MID 400 – Hoodlum Hoodie

Friday, December 27th, 2019

Today we are taking a look at another item in the FirstSpear American merino wool series. We started off with the lightest base layer package, ACM BASE 100, and we have since moved into the ACM MID 400 weight.

This package is particularly unique because it is double layer fabric, not a blend. Constructed from a fine polyester and merino wool, this material combo will quickly wick away moisture from the body and transfer it into the absorbent wool layer. This allows the poly layer to dry quickly and avoid the typical stink found in 100% synthetic apparel.

FirstSpear uses ACM MID 400 in several items, the Mid Shirt we saw several weeks ago and Today we are getting a look at the Hoodlum Hoodie. The Hoodie features a full zip front, thumb holes, low profile hood, and two zippered pockets in the front. The Hoodlum Hoodie is an exceptional standalone item that can be worn all its own or if you find yourself in particularly cold temps use it as mid layer to really keep you warm.

100% American Made with American Merino Wool. Available in black, charcoal, commando, manatee grey, and sand. Check out all of FirstSpear’s USA Merino wool Line Here.

Tuesday, December 10th, 2019

Sometimes you have to wonder what is going on. The Army put out a great story to explain that Soldiers can now wear the Coyote Fleece Cap with ACUs but for some reason could only find a photo depicting the Foliage version and old Black watch cap.

Tactical Distributors MTHD Clothing System

Monday, December 9th, 2019

Tactical Distributors has developed their own 5-level clothing system called MTHD.

MTHD [pronounced either by the initials or as the word “Method”] stands for “Mountain | Tundra | H20 | Desert”.  We like to think of it as a cross-category, tactical-inspired outdoor brand.  Our slogan is “technically advanced layering systems for global climate zones”.  We start with [L1] base layers and work our way up to [L5] weather-proof shells.  

While the clothing is manufactured in China to control costs, this direct-to-consumer line doesn’t skimp on the materials.

MTHD uses reputable partner brands like eVent® fabrics, Polartec®, Cordura®, Global Merino and other Bluesign® approved fabric and trim suppliers to build the product. They are not only the most technically innovative brands available but are also pushing the envelope in sustainability. 

Below are some examples of some of the clothing. The stuff I purchased is well made, comfortable, and the fit is true.

One of the cool features is the shoulder markings.

Currently, levels 1-3 are available. Get yours at www.tacticaldistributors.com/collections/mthd.

Parry Control Shorts

Sunday, December 8th, 2019

Parry Control Shorts are designed for grappling, but feature a 7″ inseam which may be kind of short for some of you who want to cover down to the knee. They are made from an abrasion resistant fabric with just a bit of mechanical stretch.

While they are also available in Black, Blue, and Yellow, the Tigerstripe pattern is my favorite.
