Some feedback about Tru-Spec shirts compared to others
We’ve had the Tru-Spec product line in our store for a little over a year and a half and when we bring new things in, we usually let customer tell us what they like and if it’s a good product. Part of being a good seller of tactical clothing is listing to what your customers are asking for or complaining about and giving them a good product or products to choose from. This year we tested the waters and we sold out certain products and brought in new ones based on feedback. There still is a great unknown what is going on with the Woolrich Elite customer base we have had for almost 8yrs because it looks like they are not making the product anymore. There shirts are still well made but you have to alter things based on what your customers ask for.
When it comes to durability and fit, I’d say that after about a year of use my Tru-Spec shirts started to fall apart but I sure got my monies worth. The major selling point we have with the Tru-Spec shirts we have are they are close to $10-$15 less than their 5.11 tactical comparisons. Since so many of our customers shop at our store based on their yearly clothing allowances, Tru-Spec products are even more popular. As a dealer it’s nice to have stuff here that is less money and less dollar amounts of inventory.
