Not a big fan of everything in the tactical clothing world
I have yet to find a shirt that is considered to be tactical that actually fits me right. I’ve worn plenty of them while teaching handgun courses but there were either sizing issues with them or there were functionality issues. I never like the idea of having velcro on the pockets and the button down versions just seemed far more professional looking. Some of the early Woolrich Elite products really were a knock off of what 5.11 had, but the quality and slight design improvements were a big, big deal.
Tru-Spec tactical clothing is very much becoming my favorite and its’ mostly because the fit is probable the best for me. I will not go out and say that everything else in the tactical clothing world sucks because so much of this is about preference. Tactical pants, tactical shirts and tactical vests all have different purpose and sometimes you’ll want different clothing because of the weather. Heck there may be a time you might want to put your guns and gear down and put on EMS pants and brush up on your first aid training.
I’ve heard that line asked about 5 times a month. You have to realize the number of people that carry guns in our society vs. the number that don’t. I’d say that in most cases, 98% of people in our society aren’t looking to spot a CCW holder and won’t suspect that are unless that are sloppy at concealing it. I highly recommend that most gun carries consider atleast 3 ways of carrying a firearm concealed. In most parts of the Country people have to consider a warm weather and cold weather method, then there is always a reason to consider what method one could carry a full size auto.
