USAF Sniper “Top Shot” George Reinas Teams up with DRIFIRE at SHOT Show

Thursday, January 12th, 2012

DRIFIRE is partnering with History Channel’s “Top Shot” celebrity George Reinas for 2012 SHOT Show. DRIFIRE will be showcasing its line of flame resistant military apparel made using patented drirelease® technology and George will be sharing his personal account on DRIFIRE’s performance apparel that helped keep him safe, comfortable, and protected.

He will also be available to meet fans and sign autographs at the DRIFIRE booth (#27311) at the following times during the show:

January 17th – 8:30-11:00am; 2:00-4:00 pm
January 18th – 8:30-11:00am; 2:00-4:00 pm
January 19th – 8:30-11:00am; 2:00-4:00 pm
January 20th – 8:30-11:00am; 2:00-4:00 pm

“I became a firm believer in the DRIFIRE brand from the first time I wore it,” said Reinas, a U.S. Air Force sniper, “it was 56 degrees out, pouring rain for eight straight hours, and I didn’t have any rain gear. The performance technologies in DRIFIRE garments helped prevent me from getting hypothermia. Since then, I’ve been a loyal DRIFIRE fan.”

George Reinas is a certified military, civilian and SWAT sniper, and an Air Force Sniper School instructor. He starred in season two of the History Channel’s series “Top Shot.”

“We are excited to have George share his first-hand account of the benefits of DRIFIRE technology. The performance properties in DRIFIRE fabrics and garments not only rapidly wick moisture away from the skin, but quickly evaporate moisture from the fabric, keeping wearers more dry, comfortable, and protected for the duration of exposure to the harshest of conditions,” said Chris Moore, Executive Vice President of Research Product Development.
