MEET THE MAKER - PROPPER
my Woodland ACU is years old now, but still performing, so
Propper are definitely a brand that I personally trust.
To illustrate what I mean about new directions though
I’m going to take a look at a few of their very latest
developments, starting with the FULL ZIP TECH SWEATER. At
£90.00 it combines the comfort of a stylish sweater with
the functionality of a tactical jacket. Featuring a full zip-up
front and stand-up collar, the Propper Tech Sweater is crafted
from high strength anti-pilling fleece fabric, which makes the
exterior durable but keeps interior warm and comfortable.
Reinforced fabric around the elbows and shoulders offer
additional resilience and durability, while elastic binding at
the sleeves make sure the sweater fits you perfectly during
any activity. Two dual zippered hand pockets and side zippers
allow quick access to bottom layer or your beltt, while the
vertical zippered chest pocket provides safe storage for
documents.
The Full Zip Tech Sweater from Propper offers excellent
freedom of movement with superb protection against the
weather and is perfect for casual wear as well as tactical use.
Priced at £56.00 the PROPPER V2 HOODIE is a classic bit of
design updated with some new twists; Crafted from highly
stretchable and lightweight smooth-faced jersey fleece
material, the Propper V2 Hoodie comes with 3/4 front zip
closure, contoured hood for added weather resistance, and
two zipped pockets for storing smaller tactical essentials.
Warm and comfortable, the new V2 Hoodie is perfectly
suited for both covert field duty and casual wear and is ideal
for a variety of outdoor activities. I love a good hoodie so
one of these will most
definitely be on my “wish
list” for the winter!
The PROPPER MEN’S
LIGHTWEIGHT TACTICAL
PANTS come in at a walletfriendly
£44.00; made of
durable and breathable
Polycotton Ripstop fabric,
these fully functional
Men’s Lightweight Tactical
Pants feature relaxed
fit construction with
action-stretch waistband,
reinforced seat and knees
for added durability and
durable YKK zip fly with
multiple easily accessible
pockets for all storage
needs. They’re perfect for
tactical or for everyday
use, so this is a case of
money well spent!
With a slightly higher price-tag of £62.00 the PROPPER
MEN’S STRETCH TACTICAL PANTS are made of highly stretchable
Nylon and Spandex fabric mix, these fully functional Men’s
Stretch Tactical Pants and feature relaxed fit construction
with an action-stretch waistband, reinforced seat and knees
for added durability and durable YKK zip fly with multiple
easily accessible pockets for all storage needs. These are a
bit more dynamic than the standard tactical pants, and it’s
certainly easy to see where your money is going here too.
Now I’m really just touching the tip of the iceberg with
these four garments. Speaking to the team at Military
1st they are aiming to offer their customers a massive
selection of Propper’s high-quality products, including a
comprehensive range of tactical pants, combat shirts and
field uniforms, waterproof jackets, hoodies, vests and soft
shells, as well as low-profile backpacks, duffles, gun cases,
utility pouches and accessories such as belts, hats, socks and
patches. It’s most definitely a case of “watch this space”!
