Tuff Possum Gear… Survival Bow Tie?

By on December 11, 2018 in Survival

Can your bow tie help you find north or start a fire in an emergency? It probably can’t but Tuff Possum Gear’s bow tie can!

Tuff Possum Gear is known for making outdoor and survival related nylon gear, so when the opportunity to dress up a little bit arose, owner Jayberry Miller couldn’t help but take this bow tie up a notch or two with the inclusion of a button compass and firestarter.

The idea of a survival bow tie is worth sharing. Unfortunately, this survival bow tie is just a one-off creation and not something Tuff Possum Gear plans to add to their lineup… but we can dream.

Special Color Modified 10×12″ CenterZip Pouches from Tuff Possum Gear

By on October 22, 2018 in EDC, Survival, Tactical Gear

We’ve told you about Tuff Possum Gear’s Modified 10×12″ CenterZip Pouches before (previous article). These handy pouches are designed to easily attach to the Hill People Gear Tarahumara pack to expand its capacity. Now Tuff Possum Gear is offering the pouch in two special colors: Multicam Black and Safety Orange.

The Multicam Black is notable because, well… everyone like Multicam Black and it looks great. The Safety Orange colorway is truly useful for those who want to not only add capacity to their Tarahumara, but also stand out more in the woods. If you are using the Tarahumara as a hunting pack, this would be an easy way to add some orange to your kit. Even if you aren’t hunting but you are using the pack in an area where you know hunters may be, this is a handy addition to a great pack.

Tuff Possum Gear Modified 10×12 Center-Zip Pouch – Easy Way to Add Capacity to HPG Tarahumara

By on September 6, 2018 in EDC, Tactical Gear

If you are looking for an easy way to add some capacity and organization to your Hill People Gear Tarahumara, check out the Tuff Possum Gear (TPG) Modified 10×12 Center-Zip Pouch. TPG’s Center-Zip Pouches were originally designed as general purpose pouches that could organize small gear in a large pack or serve as possibles pouches.

They posted a custom modification of one such pouch on their social media that was slightly larger than their typical Center-Zip Pouch and had the addition of 2 webbing loops with GrimLocs. These additions allowed the pouch to mate perfectly with the top loops of the Hill People Gear Tarahumara. The idea grew legs from there and now they offer these pouches regularly in small batches.

The Modified 10×12 Center-Zip Pouch attaches to the top loops on the Tarahumara. It hangs down on the front of the pack and is captured with the Tarahumara’s compression straps. This configuration adds capacity while maintaining compression and allowing easy access to the main compartment by simply opening the compression straps and flipping the pouch up out of the way.

By on February 6, 2018 in EDC, Survival, Tactical Gear

Even the most basic scarf can be used in a lot of different ways but Tuff Possum Gear has added a couple of unique features that really earn the name Multipurpose Survival Scarf (MSS).

Their MSS is constructed from diamond ripstop nylon that is sewn into a tube with a closed end. The interior of the tube is lined with high visibility orange fabric so that they entire scarf may be turned inside out to serve as a visual signal. This closed end tube format allows the MSS to serve not only as a scarf but also as a number of other items like:

  • a bag for gathering materials
  • a sling bag when tied with cordage
  • a pillow
  • a pre-filter for water purification
  • a head covering
  • and lots, lots more…

You can check out the Multipurpose Survival Scarf at the Tuff Possum Gear store.
