SOMA – Marz Tactical

Wednesday, December 18th, 2013

Marz Tactical has introduced a headrest harness for their Multi-Mode IFAK, unveiled last year here at SOMA. It allows you to mount the rear of a headrest where it is easily accessible. The buckle and strapping system keeps it secure yet allows deployment in an instant.

SOMA – S.O. Tech

survival-sling-flyer-resized

The new Survival Sling from S.O Tech is a multipurpose item that does 4 things. It’s a 4000 lbs breaking strength strap that can be used as a 2-PT rifle sling. It can also be used as a load carriage and drag strap as well as an extraction harness. To me, the most interesting use is to carry litters, offering a hand free solution for litter bearers.

In a pinch, it can also be used as a belt or combined with other Survival Slings to make a longer rope.

Look for this for sale before SHOT Show.

S.O. Tech has launched the new Basic Issue Line. The premise behind the Basic Issue Line is to offer a barebones design approach: Simple, Strong, Economical, and US Made. It’s inexpensive and designed to wear like iron in a similar to the gear you were issued in basic training. It’s not fancy but it gets the job done. The current run of the Basic Issue Line consists of three products: the Duty Go Bag, Cheetah Sling, and Jaguar Sling.

Falling In Love With Hill People Gear All Over Again

Tuesday, December 10th, 2013

Hill People Gear has been kind of quiet for awhile now but earlier today they gave us a sneak peek of a few upcoming items: the Terrainsert, Attaché and Medium GP Pocket. I can’t help but once again stand in awe of what seem to be phased improvements to their back country living system. They consistently impress.

Terrainsert

The Tarainsert is a combination framesheet / organization panel for the Tarahumara pack and made from HDPE that is slathered in FirstSpear 6/12 goodness.
