About a year ago we introduced the Firestorm Combat Shirt from ICE Tactical to you. We were able to purchase one from GSS. We have to tell you, this is one seriously nice combat shirt. Consider this. It’s FR, it’s printed completely in MultiCam, and it’s currently $99 from ICE Tactical. Read our write up. Everything still applies. It’s comfortable, roomy considering that it’s a combat shirt and well made.
Canada’s ICE Tactical is a small company that keeps a low profile. ICE is also well tied in to the latest materials and very much on the edge of new idea development. Consequently, you see things like this; a medium GP Pouch made from 500D Cordura with MultiCam printed pile and and slide fastener. No word yet on when these new materials will be cut completely into the line.
From Integrated Combat Equipment comes the new Firestorm Combat Shirt. It features a 10″ zippered front as well as inset bicep pockets with zippered openings and velcro patches. The big story here is obviously the fabric. The entire shirt is made from a Berry Compliant 7.5oz Jersey knit unlike other combat shirts that combine knits and wovens. The material is a 71% Modacrylic, 24% FR Rayon, 5% Spandex blend that passes the vertical flame test for FR. Additionally, it has an anti-microbial treatment and a moisture management treatment meaning less stink. Berry compliant and available in any color as long as it’s MultiCam, sizes S-XXL. The fit is not as tight as other combat shirts.
So, to sum up: FR, lightweight, 100% knit, anti-microbial, and Berry Compliant. We have been waiting to write about these until they are actually in stock. Available for order now.
ICE Tactical introduces the first of their new Firestorm line. It is a FR Short Sleeve T-Shirt Made from 65% Mod-acrylic, 25% FR Rayon, and 5% Spandex. It also features a permanent wicking treatment for warm weather comfort. This product is Berry Compliant and is offered in Coyote.
ICE Tactical has released photos of three new headwear products manufactured from an FR knit fabric in MultiCam (of course).
