Tactical pants for fence jumpers
We’re going to go out on our soap box today and make the statement that if you’re tactical clothing manufacturer is not making pants with gusseted crotches, you’re going to be out of business in the very near future. I remember when pants first started coming out like that and how much chuckling went on in the offices while sales reps were getting trained about the fact we all had to learn about the crotch area on the Blackhawk, Eotac and 5.11 pants. While there are plenty of nice looking and nice fitting pants, they won’t work in the real world of fence jumping and Operator work.
It’s this time of the year where we run out of catalogs and listen to all of the hoopla about about what is going to be coming out around SHOT Show, but we never know for sure until later in the year. As much as the tactical pants market has been flooded, there is plenty of room for fit adjustments and improvements on existing designs. After all, everyone is basically just copying 5.11 tactical, right? 5.11 Tactical started it all and they still maintain the better part of it, but being that we’re dealing with a niche market, how big is the niche?
