FirstSpear Friday Focus: Siege-R Optimized

Friday, March 10th, 2023

After collecting and analyzing years of valuable feedback from users about our popular Siege R, we designed the Siege-R Optimized.

The standard shoulder pads are padded and fully adjustable, including two sets of Tubes in the front and back for rapid switch-out to the enhanced MASS Shoulder System.

The front and back plate pockets are internal to the vest, making the system slimmer and better suited for confined & tubular spaces.

Our quick-drying airflow mesh is utilized on the interior to reduce overall weight and shed water quickly. This iteration of the Siege-R truly is Optimized for all missions and conditions!

Ballistic Armor Inserts, complying with NIJ Category IIIA.06 or Military Specification requirements, are available separately, please contact us for armor options and pricing.
