FirstSpear Friday Focus: Merry Christmas
Friday, December 23rd, 2022FirstSpear Friday Focus: Line One Belt
Friday, December 16th, 2022
The Line One Belt is our most popular everyday belt, borrowing its name from an old NSW term for the first level of clothing or gear. This belt has amazing tactical performance that maintains the high level of comfort and mobility usually associated with leather.
Urethane covered nylon provides superior strength and weather-resistance. This belt won’t crack, peel, or become stiff in frigid temperatures. Specially tempered, non-slip coating eliminates “break-in” time and allows for leather like flex, yet it is impervious to sweat and water and will not stretch or lose its original shape.

FirstSpear Friday Focus: NSNS Carrier Systems
Friday, November 25th, 2022
This week, we’re showcasing our best selling Non-Stocking Non-Standard (NSNS) carrier systems.
Taking its name from an old Norse Viking term for a lightning raid, Strandhögg was one of the first formalized battle tactics to use covert infiltrators in advance of an actual raiding operation. Strandhögg was a tactical game changer in its time, just like the technological advances FirstSpear brings forward in this line of plate carriers.
Cut edge-to-edge to specifically fit SAPI / ESAPI / SPEAR plate sizes, the Strandhögg can be worn with or without soft armor panels, depending on ballistic requirements, threat conditions and type of plates used. Maximizing lightweight 6/12 technology and rapid Tubes® Closure Systems, this carrier can be rapidly donned and doffed. The Strandhögg is a streamlined fit and is easily tailored for comfort and ventilation.
Named for the intrepid explorer and cunning warrior Ragnar Lodbrok, the Ragnar Vest and its accessories are suited for a wide variety of roles and circumstances. The Ragnar Vest is covered in loop fabric and can be altered with different cummerbunds. Four special built-in pockets with retention tabs allow for storage of accessories based on situational requirements. This is a multi-mission vest with the flexibility to cover a variety of profiles.
The Sloucher combines many of the most desirable features of both the Siege-R and the Sleeper. Stretch panels on the cummerbund and Tubes closures keep the fit tight and allow for quick donning and doffing. The 6/12 Pocket Attachment System provides a low profile. This carrier accepts front, back and side plates SPEAR / BALCS cut soft armor (not included), MASS accessories and pockets using 6/12, 6/9 and MOLLE / PALS. The sloucher provides state of the art capability to support a full spectrum of operations.
The Sleeper is a stay behind asset and a less visible alternative to more overt style tactical vests. This carrier is designed to be worn over or under garments, as a stand alone vest or in conjunction with other FirstSpear carrier systems. The Sleeper fits US SOCOM SPEAR / BALCS soft armor and SAPI / ESAPI / SPEAR plates, including swimmer cut.

FirstSpear Friday Focus: Wool ACM-WARM 600
Friday, November 18th, 2022This week, we’re featuring our warmest Merino Wool line in ACM-WARM 600.
The ACM-WARM 600 is FirstSpear’s heaviest weight Merino Wool and provides the greatest standalone warmth. Pair with ACM-BASE 100 and ACM-MID 400 to create an extremely warm and comfortable system to beat the elements.
The Everyday Vest (EDV) is a great addition to the FirstSpear wool line. It utilizes an extremely lightweight 50/50 blend of our American Merino Wool and Polyester and is fully Berry Compliant. This is a heavyweight Merino Wool vest with a soft, brushed fleece interior, designed for the coldest temperatures.
The sleeveless design of the Stalker Vest is a unique feature in the FirstSpear American Wool line with an important benefit. The Stalker Vest has been designed for wear under plate carriers and can be removed without taking the carrier off. Simply open the sides of the Stalker Vest and slide it over your head. With the exclusive design of the Stalker Vest, you can easily adjust body heat retention. Too hot, one the sides for ventilation. Too cold, close the sides. Way too hot, remove the whole vest. All without removing your carrier.

Each have their own unique style while remaining the absolute warmest American Merino Wool that FirstSpear offers.
