I know we’ve talked about these FR Board Shorts from Drifire in the past but they’ve finally received NAVAIR approval.
I imagine you’re scratching your head over FR shorts but there’s a good reason. They were designed as a short that Rescue Swimmers coukd wear under their Drysuits and that’s why they are FR.
They are made from a 7 oz fabric with drirelease moisture wicking and odor control treatment. The shorts have a Velcro closure at the waist with adjustable waistband. There are also two bellowed cargo pockets with drainage holes.
DRIFIRE created this DriRelease performance T-shirt in Grey for an Air Force customer. It’s shown here with a Coyote shirt.
DRIFIRE has a Tan 499 FR Moisture Wicking T-shirt, both short and long sleeved. This is compatible with the new OCP ACU. The short sleeved T is available now through AAFES.
This is DRIFIRE’s new commercial, which will air Sunday on NBC Sports during the IndyCar Milwaukee race. You’re seeing it here first.
In late summer, Drifire will be releasing this new FR base layer. More details to come soon.
Thanks to the guys at DriFire, I had a chance to check out a new line of clothing made from American wool. Look for more on this exciting brand soon.
The benefits of wool are well known; warm even when wet, naturally anti-microbial and no-melt no-drip. Plus, in this case, it’s grown, processed and manufactured right here in the USA.
I’ve mentioned the DRIFIRE Combat Hoodie in the past and since it showed up at both SHOT Show as well as Outdoor Retailer I thought I’d give it another shout out. It’s manufactured from a very comfy DRIFIRE knit with some pretty decent mechanical stretch that is not only FR but also incorporates drirelease technology that dries four times faster than cotton and controls odor causing bacteria. It can be worn next-to-skin or as a layered garment. It also features thumb loop cuffs and the four-piece hood offers a cross-over front and an innovative built-in balaclava/neck gaiter with tuck away option.
Manufactured by www.drifire.com, these should be available from www.tacticaldistributors.com soon.
