Major Shift in Tactical Clothing
Now that 2012 is upon us we will begin our shift towards carrying more of the Woolrich Elite and Tru-Spec line. Although we do carry some of the 5.11 tactical clothing, there is very much a demand for things other than 5.11. Vertx pants are very nice but considering the price tag on the products it’s a little too much to dive into at this point. We’re expecting consumer confidence to pick up once there are changes in Washington and we hope there are. I would have to say that Tru-Spec and Vertx seem to have made the most traction in 2011 and we plan on riding that wave although the Woolrich Elite Chino pants are our favorite pant of the year.
We are making some major changes to the inventory that we are stocking and it’s time to clean house. For a short time we have reduced the large quantity of Eotac tactical pants to $24.99 and making room for other things. These pants are a fantastic deal and the designs were very well thought out although according to many of our customers the Woolrich Elite pants had a better durability a held up better after washing. I personally have seen very little sizing issues between Woolrich Elite, Eotac and Tru-Spec pants so it should be an easy adjustment for our customer base.
