The Tactical Sweaters are GO!

"With a bit of luck, his life was ruined forever. Always thinking that just behind some narrow door in all of his favorite bars, men in red woolen shirts are getting incredible kicks from things he’ll never know." - Hunter S. Thompson, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas


Good News: My woolen Tactical Sweaters* arrived via UPS yesterday after a long and sordid affair. Backorder my ASS. Took about a month for them to come in, but such is to be expected when ordering surplus sweaters from the British Government.

Note the aggressive elbow padding, ideal for diving behind cover. Not clearly visible in the picture are the shoulder grab handles - some call them epaulettes, but I call them Adventure Straps. They seem to be designed to secure a backpack to your shirt. Sure it's scratchy, but that's a Feature meant to strengthen your resolve. One thing is for certain... this is built to withstand the most questionable hijinks.
