FirstSpear Friday Focus: Top Gear List from Its Team of Veterans

Whether you’re a grunt warring through the suck or a weekend warrior training at the range, the gear that you train with needs to be on point.

In honor of Veteran’s Day this week, they asked the team of FirstSpear veterans for their favorites. Here are their top seven picks.

1 Woobie Quarter-Zip— super warm and not bulky; staying warm in the field is crucial. These woobies are lightweight, moisture-wicking, and are designed to keep you from hating life while standing post on cold nights. Whether you’re on the range or hitting the stand for hunting season, the ACM wool lineup is a must-have for cold climates.

2 MultiMag Rapid Adjust Pocket— Mission requirements evolve, the rapid-adjust pocket holds everything the mission requires… from magazines to beer cans.

3 Boot Super Sock— Grunts know that blisters and wet feet suck, these merino wool socks keep your feet in the fight.

4 Padded Plate Backer— Wearing armor is never comfortable, these plate backers improve comfort and provide channels for more airflow.

5 Operator Glove— All hail the OG, there is always a trade-off when wearing gloves, you lose dexterity and the ability to manipulate equipment and gear. The OG glove offers great dexterity, works with touch screens, and the merino wool is useable in both hot and cold conditions.

6   Wind Cheater— This iconic all-American-made jacket offers great protection from weather elements, looks sharp, and is crucial during cold weather. The pit zips keep you cool if you’re out rucking.

7 Hoodlum Hoodie— This is the most comfortable hoodie I’ve owned. It always seems to be the right amount of warmth, be it an early morning garage workout or hike in the spring.
