OR Summer Market 19 – Trade Rolling Suitcase in Woodland / 6-Color Desert from Herschel Supply Co

Friday, June 21st, 2019

For the past few years I’ve had a Herschel Trade rolling suitcase in Woodland Camo. It’s a hard-sided case that’s taken well over 100,000 airline miles. I always know which bag is mine coming off of the carousel and my contents always arrive safe and sound. Unfortunately, baggage handlers are working hard to rip one of the wheels off. Eventually, it will succumb to their efforts.

That’s why I was super stoked to see that Herschel is releasing a new variant in Spring 20 featuring a combination of both Woodland and 6-color Desert camouflage patterns. The Trade comes in four sizes and its clamshell design features integrated locks for the two zipper polls.

Herschel will be introducing a whole slew of their other styles in 6-color Desert as well, but the Trade remains my favorite.

If you’re interested in getting one, make sure you jump on them quickly once they are available because the camouflage variants always go quickly.

TAC SHIELD Addresses the Three Basic Belt Needs

Thursday, June 13th, 2019

JUNE 11, 2019, Pinehurst, NC—The world of tactical belts can be confusing and overwhelming, especially when trying to find a belt that works best for you and your application. 

In our mind, getting the right belt boils down to three basic needs:

1. I need a good belt to hold my pants up. If you just need a belt to hold your pants up then we have you covered. We suggest one of our single layered universal belts.  For Example: The 1.75” Tactical Garrison Belt offers great strength and support.  This belt’s single-layered 7,000-pound mil-spec webbing will not only hold your pants up, but it will also provide a strong platform for lighter-weight gear. 

2. I need a belt for my EDC Pistol and extra magazine. So you’re looking for a belt that is comfortable and can hold your Everyday Carry Pistol.  Whether you carry IWB or OWB, the Tactical Gun Belt is just what you need. Available in both 1.50” and 1.75” widths, the heavy-duty 2,000 lb. Cobra Buckles provide security, accessibility, and comfort. A special poly stiffener system also provides extra support for heavier firearms or additional gear. 

3. I need a survival belt that will carry all my gear. If you’re looking for a belt to keep your pants up, carry lots of equipment, and be used in emergency situations, check out our Riggers Belt Line. All belts feature double-walled, 7,000 lb. mil-spec webbing providing the strength you need while offering a comfortable soft edge design that doesn’t dig into your sides. The forged Steel V-Ring buckles are load tested at 2,500 lbs. giving the user peace of mind during emergency situations.
