Custom Gear Report

While at the Special Operations Forces Industry Conference a few months back, we had the opportunity to check out 215 Gear.

Jim, the owner of the company is a current Operator in the Special Operations Community which provides his company a unique point of view while designing gear, not to mention one of the most sought after field testing opportunities in the gear industry. When describing the company, I think Jim put it best “What makes 215 Gear stand out is that your solution is designed by an active duty SOF operator, who knows the current battlefield conditions you face, not someone who has never humped the weight and does not understand what you need to achieve.” Their motto says it all 215 gear is a true “For the Operator, by the Operator” company.

They are focused on two founding principles:

1. Make high quality gear that missions require, and are not currently on the market.
2. Make that gear in America, for our Operators that risk everything to preserve our way of life.

215 Gear provides out of the box ideas to fill many of the gaps in current gear designs. They are not focusing on redesigning the same ammo pouch over and over, they are developing solutions to fill current voids.

Specializing in what Jim calls “Custom Production” 215 Gear has set up their comapny to be able to act quickly to changing demands with a rapid prototyping capability to meet ever changing battlefield requirements. Unlike the larger companies’, 215 gear has the ability to individually tailor a gear solution for you or your unit which is what custom gear is about.

Another items to emphasize is that all their products are made in the USA. Like 215 Gear, CGR feels that American warriors should be using gear made by Americans. Standby for upcoming gear reviews.
