The Geek is Wiseman Company’s answer to a pocket protector. This pocket sized organizer can be used to carry the small items that you carry every day… or maybe even for your own version of The EDC Tool Roll.
The Geek is constructed from X-Pac so it is lightweight and durable. It features 4 pockets – a large zippered main pocket, a large front pocket, and 2 slash pockets for items like tools, light, knives, pens, and more.
The buyer can choose from Green, Tan, Red, Khaki, or Black.
The Hill People Gear Tarahumara is a unique pack in that it is very compact (about 900 cui) but has a harness system that can support loads far heavier than you can typically stuff into that small of a pack. This makes it something of a blank canvas for users and makers to develop ways to expands its capacity.
Mel Terkla of PocketUp recently showed how their pockets can be used to expand and organize the Tarahumara pack while still providing access to all compartments. Two Handy Pockets are hung from the upper tabs and compressed by the Tarahumara’s compression straps. These are PocketUp’s 1000D Handy Pockets but any of their large Handy Pockets would fit with the same proportions. There are plenty of hardware choices that can be used to hang the pouches in this manner like ITW GrimLocs or Slick Clips.
Additionally, he has attached a Mini Pod to the bottom of the pack. The Mini Pod would attach easily to the Tarahumara’s existing lower tabs, instantly adding compressible storage for items like light insulation or shell layers. We have previously discussed the Mini Pod here: Mini Pod on JTT

Do you like Night Camo? Of course, you do. Would like like to know about Head On Tactical’s new line of Night Camo gear? Of course, you would.
Head On Tactical has sourced a limited amount of 30D ripstop polyester Night Camo material. They are going to put it to good use by making a few limited edition pieces of gear. The item is their CQB Action Rig mod 1 pattern chest rig.
This material is not quite as durable as typical 500D or 1000D Cordura so Head On Tactical has taken steps to mitigate that. The body of the chest rig is 500D Cordura with the 30D Night Camo material stitched over it. The PALS webbing is constructed by wrapping the Night Camo material around 1000D Cordura.
Keep an eye on Head On Tactical’s Night Camo page for more details and information about future limited gear items: Head On Tactical Night Camo
The Blue Force Gear Hammock is more than just an April Fools joke. Sure, they put a banana in it and the jokes wrote themselves but now they are rolling it out as a real product with real utility.
The Hammock is used to carry a tourniquet or similarly shaped object while taking up minimal space and providing solid coverage on the tourniquet. It works with the gear you already have thanks to its unique hanger that has laser cut slots. These slots allow the Hammock to be woven into the MOLLE mounting elements on the back of the pouch. There are instructions for how to attach the Hammock on the Blue Force Gear website.
