Tru-Spec Combat Shirts

I got a question from someone recently that asked why the prices were so different on certain Tru-Spec Combat shirts and my short answer was because of the different materials.   Some of the shirts are a 65%/35% Polyester/Cotton ripstop and some are a 50% Nylon/50% cotton ripstop.   Anyone that knows an electrician can ask them first hand why clothing matters and it’s all about the “what if” there was a flash or a fire.  As someone who’s got scars to show what plastic can do to skin even if they aren’t on fire, getting burned by melting materials is as painful as having a fire burn you and usually worse.  Polyester cCombat shirtsMulticam Combat ShirtArmy DigitalUrban DigitalMulticam Blackan be bad news around fire, and cotton just burns off and doesn’t melt.  Law Enforcement are exposed to flash bangs that can spark or shoot fragments which is why eyewear and proper clothing even if it’s  not bullet proof is so important.

There are many cross-overs with some of these products and it’s not all Law Enforcement that buy some of these Combat clothing.   Airsoft is really big these days and a big step up from paintball and the Tru-Spec combat shirts and Assault shirts can work well for that type of thing although they are much better quality than you’re going to find in an all paintball or airsoft store.  When choosing what type of camo or colors, it’s either about looking cool or melting into your environment for your own personal advantage.  Multicam and now the new Multicam Black are a big step up from the Digital patterns that have been around for more than a decade.   Is some environments you may be better off with the All Terrain Tiger.   We keep all of these patterns in

tactical shirts in a new camoflauge pattern

One of the fun things about riding the Eotac wave into the tactical apparel market is the innovation and originality of the product line.   We’re aware of many of the really neat things coming out in the next 2yrs and we’re waiting for the new pants and shirts that are coming out in the A-tacs pattern camo.   We’ve had the first samples for a few months and displayed them in Atlantic City, New Jersey Police and Security Expo and the recently at the NTOA in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.    They have been floating around since Show Shot, but the final production designs have only recently been finalized and we are expecting them to be available in the Spring of 2011.

The Style 407 is the tactical shirt that Eotac has chosen for the first run of the new A-tacs pattern camo.  This shirt is probable the most tactical looking along with it’s counterpart the style 408 short sleeve version.   The front pockets are bellowed to give a little bit more room compared to many of the 5.11, Woolrich Elite Series and Blackhawk shirts.   I’ve had a lot of comments about how the shirt pockets on many of the non-Eotac shirts were too small and ended up tearing eventually if people put too much in there.  The 3 way ventilated back will give you a lot of breathing room while wearing a durable and useful shirt.
