Boot specials for November

This month we are going to be running another large Original Swat tactical footwear promotion because we just love doing them.   With this economy, people are scrounging the clearance sections of some of the large product distributors and there are some pretty good deals out there.   With the implosion of a few businesses this year, there is yet another big flood of good quality clothing for discount prices.   One thing we really like around here at Rogue Elite is a company that backs it’s products.  With tactical clothing an apparel, we get people that tear things or have them fall apart in a short time period and most of the time they come back to us and not to the manufacturer.

Original Swat Footwear has over 10yrs experience in the tactical footwear community and that’s not a new business.   There tactical boots are hands down the best deal for the money because the company backs their products for 1yr.   We have guys walk in here all the time and tell us that they spent $150+ for boots that only held up a year and now they get their money’s worth with the Style 1152 Original Swat boots.   The 1150 and 1152 boots are probable the most popular sellers for military persons.    The traction of the footwear is different depending on the type of boot, but some of them work very well for low key low profile use.

Pants options for the shooting ranges?

There have been many times I have gone to IDPA competitions or local shooting matches and seen guys pack up gear and be on their way because they are afraid of the elements.   One of the funny things about the shooting community is the number of prima donnas that dwell in it with expensive firearms, but won’t run them like the are capable of.  One of those elements that firearms should be able to handle is the rain.  Especially when it comes to  using Military style firearms.  Some hunting rifles may get messed up in the rain but there are ways of preventing that.  Cheap optics will also become know and fog up on you.

One of the best things to market for this time of the year is rain gear.  For some odd reason we get a lot of rain in the Fall and the Summer here in the Northeast and most tactical pants are just going to hold water or get saturated.  Cotton Canvas has a bad reputation for this but this year we have something new.  The Woolrich Elite WaterProof pants go well with the Elite Waterproof parka.   Unfortunately Woolrich is only making these pants in black at the moment, but they easily roll up and can fit in a range bag for those rainy days.   It would be nice to see something in the future that is Hi visibility though.
