Worthy of a walk in a browse at our showroom
After the demise of several clothing companies in recent years we tip toed our way through the various tactical clothing brands and asked our customers what they were going to be wearing once the other brands stopped becoming available. It seems that the 100% cotton rip stop pants that we sold are not really being made by anyone anymore and it’s mostly the 65%/35% poly cotton ripstop pants. Mostly Law Enforcement prefer that material design for training or off duty work. We do notice the the majority of our military contractors want cotton ripstop or cotton canvas clothing and according to them, it’s more comfortable to wear.
Sometimes the amount of “new” stuff that comes out each year is overwhelming but I have to force myself to try things on and wear them long enough to be able to speak for myself. Recently I picked up some body armor that worked for me but I needed to try on the TruSpec combat shirts that so many of our local law enforcement and government departments are wearing. Even though there has been a major switch over to multicam, several departments here are still using urban digit for combat uniform. Sometimes it’s more about identifying your department and not trying to hide.
