OR – Tear-Aid
August 2nd, 2012Tear-Aid is a see-through, airtight and waterproof repair tape. It is elastic and features an extreme bond. It sounds perfect for field repairs. In fact, the USCG uses it to repair their Zodiacs.
It comes in two types. Type B is for vinyl only and Type A works with all other materials.
OR – Cilogear
August 2nd, 2012Cilogear has introduced a signature line of packs. Now you can use the same setup as their sponsored athletes. For example, this is David Gottlieb model. He is a mountain rescue legend and relies on a special model of Cilogear’s 45 Worksack. It’s a combination of woven and non-woven fabrics to produce bomber performance. It’s fucking light and stupidly durable. Can you imagine a pack as light as 1.4 lbs stripped?
OR – Boreal
August 2nd, 2012Spanish bookmaker Boreal doesn’t get much attention here in the US but their Strider model comes highly recommended by some friends of mine.
It’s a simple trekker featuring full grain leather uppers and a Boreal Dry-Line waterproof liner.
OR – Nature’s Coffee Kettle
August 2nd, 2012
Weighing in at less than 2 oz, Nature’s Coffee Kettle is simple to use. Just just add 4 cups (32 oz) of hot water and you get real brewed coffee. What is even cooler, is that you can replace the coffee pack with a fresh one. In addition to an organic and Colombian, hazelnut and blueberry coffee, they also offer hot chocolate, apple cider, black tea and even hot tomato soup! There’s also decaf if that’s what you are looking for.
This is great for use on a LP/OP, for LE surveillance or just out hunting with your buddies or tailgating.
OR – Powertraveller
August 2nd, 2012The Powertraveller Solarmonkey Adventurer is a great choice for military personnel not only from a Size, Weight and Power standpoint, but also from a price perspective. It’s only $130 and also comes with a PALS compatible pouch.
In addition to the integrated solar array, you can also charge the device from shore power. Not only that, but you can also daisy chain an additional device to the Powermonkey Adventurer and charge them simultaneously.
