TYR Tactical has just released the Huron Combat Cold Weather Uniform which consists of Jacket and Pant. Throughout the design process they focused on developing a system that provides comfort, durability, and weather protection. The end result was a “go anywhere, do anything” garment that your gear closet has been missing.
Huron Combat Cold Weather Uniform Jacket
The Huron™ Combat Cold Weather Uniform Jacket (HRN-CWU105-T) is an ultra-light, packable soft shell jacket that provides ample protection from wind and light rain.
The Jacket is a full front zip, six pocket design, built with additional space to allow layering when temps drop below freezing. There are two hand pockets, two chest pockets, and two upper arm pockets, that provide plenty storage for small items. Additionally, they can be opened when needed, to vent excess heat during times of high exertion. The uniform is also treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish.
Special Features:
They have incorporated ventilation points on several areas of the uniform. The use of poly mesh on the front breast pockets and lower hand pocket allow for air to pass through the garment during both static and active situations.
Additional Features:
• Two Breast Pockets with Ventilation (Zipper Closure)
• Two Lower Hand Pockets with Ventilation (Zipper Closure)
• Two Sleeve Pockets (Zipper Closure)
• DWR treated for water repellency

The Huron™ Combat Cold Weather Uniform Pant (HRN-CWU105-P) is an ultra-light, packable soft shell pant that provides ample protection from wind and light rain.
The Pants combine 2-Way Stretch Softshell material and a 4-Way Stretch Tweave for comfort and durability. They offer two front slash pockets, two rear zippered pockets, and two zippered cargo pockets. The wide waistband has large belt loops to accommodate belt’s up to 2” in height, a button fly, and a Velcro® front closure. The knees are double layered Tweave for both stretch and durability. They incorporate a pocket for inserting knee pads if preferred. Similar in design to our popular Huron™ Hot Weather Uniform, the pants use 4-Way Stretch in key areas that allow for complete freedom of movement. The uniform is also treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish.

This barrel chested freedom fighter is sporting the Huron Combat Cold Weather Uniform, coming in November from TYR Tactical. As he’s also wearing the TYR Tactical PICO-DS Assaulters Plate Carrier, we’ll give you an additional shot of the uniform’s cut.
Look for more details soon!
This is the new PICO DS Chest RACK from TYR Tactical. It was designed specifically for use with their PICO DS but it can also be run independently with an H Harness. An interesting feature is that each of the four individual magazine pockets at the rear are actually Combat Adjustable Happy Mag Pouches. For those who want extra security for their magazines, they’ve included optional bungees.
Additionally, it also capacity for two pistol mags (pouch is magnetic) and two GP Pouches, one of which will hold an M67 and the other is a bit larger at 4″x5″ for med/signal/SERE needs.
The spacer mesh at the rear is removable and the RACK can be attached via Velcro. However, the SR four buckles hold it in place pretty well.
Recently, I had the opportunity to observe portions of a special training course presented by TYR Tactical for members of the Missouri Law Enforcement community. The lead instructor was Dan Brokos. He’s still on active duty, but has done some work for Viking Tactics over the past few years. You may have also heard of the Brokos Belt which was created by him. He’s very knowledgeable and very approachable.
It’s important to note that this is not an open enrollment course but rather presented at no cost to LE by TYR Tactical. Consequently, I’m not going to get into the details about what went on during the training. Instead, I’ll stick to generalities. Additionally, all of these men are currently on the job and I want to respect that. However, I will tell you that the training was hosted at the Camden County Sheriff’s Office Firing Range near Lake of the Ozarks. It’s beautiful country and a well maintained range complex, but with it situated in a bowl, the temps were in the upper 90s.
After a quick discussion about his background, along with that of his AI (I should be introducing him to all of you soon), Brokos went over range safety and particularly how it related to the upcoming two days of training. Day one was carbine and day two was pistol in the morning, with an afternoon wrapup of mixed pistol and carbine work. Dan Brokos will tell you that there’s no one way to do things, although he concentrates on sharing his 26 years of military experience and those proven techniques which have been honed by US SOF over the past 15 years. There are no fads here or questionable tactics. Everything he teaches has been validated on the two-way range. &
Interestingly, the attendees came from several agencies, with different backgrounds, and varying degrees of experience. Most were armed with .223 AR-15 type weapons from a variety of manufacturers, with one agency’s officers outfitted with MP-5s. Pistols were primarily GLOCKs with a mixture of .40 and 9mm. Naturally, their equipment was just as varied. As an aside, fallout from the Ferguson situation continues to set in. For example, there’s a push in Missouri, at least at the state level, to transition SWAT from MultiCam and OD to Black because it is less militaristic.
Next, Brooks talked about the advantages of a 50m zero and the class dove right in, getting it quickly out of the way. Next up was barricades. Brokos demonstrated each event and then had the students run through before introducing a competitive element, whether individual or team races against one another or the clock. While time is a factor, hits in the A-zone are what counts. He also insists students shoot from both strong and weak sides and reinforces effective use of barricades as shooting platforms in his drills.
One point I’ll share is that Brokos puts students in shooting positions, particularly during the vehicle phase, which will require most to shoot with one eye closed. Those same positions, which are variations of ‘brokeback’, require the student to consider how to best stabilize the weapon, be it carbine or pistol. His focus is on offensive action, delivering effective fire, and maneuver. Maneuver, that means moving.
Technically, the Urban Gunfighter Course is an extension of TYR’s Innovate or Die Tour. This means, in addition to the training, TYR brought out their mobile showroom to the range. This was great for several reasons. First off, it was hot and humid, so the showroom was a great spot to cool off during lunch. Second, it allowed students to check out the latest gear and ask questions of David Rice, a recently retired LEO and head of LE sales at TYR.
For those of you unfamiliar, the TYR Tactical Mobile Showroom is a custom 44’ trailer, designed to travel across the country for customer outreach. For the first time, customers have a hands-on experiences with TYR Tactical Pouches, Body Armor, Belts, Revere K9 Products and Huron Clothing and Packs. They also get a chance to view products before their release and provide feedback on existing products.

The Huron Anorak is currently made from a four-way stretch softshell material. TYR has made a few prototypes of their Anorak in Polartec’s waterproof/breathable Neoshell fabric. It’s got a little bit of mechanical stretch to it, but it’s lightweight, packs well, and is highly breathable. They say they’ll release a production version in Spring 17. Looking forward to it.
