Rothco Launches New Line of Tactical Uniform Shirts
RONKONKOMA NY, April 14, 2021 – Rothco, the New York-based family-owned retailer of military, tactical, and outdoor gear and supplies, is officially launching a revolutionary new line of Lightweight Tactical Uniform Shirts specially designed for first responders and public safety personnel.
The lightweight, low-profile tactical uniform shirts are equipped with a variety of features that support first responders in the line of duty. These features include a durable and lightweight stain-resistant ripstop fabric that prevents permanent blemishes on the job, gusseted sleeves for enhanced mobility, and mic clips over each shoulder for hassle-free communications.
“Here at Rothco, we have close relationships with the professional law enforcement and public safety community; they give us constant feedback about the gear they need to perform their duties as effectively as possible,” said Howard Somberg, President at Rothco. “This uniform shirt is the culmination of that feedback; it includes all of the features they suggested, and then some. We want this to become the go-to uniform shirt for first responders.”
Among those highly beneficial features are the shirt’s two front chest pockets, which feature pen slots sealed with hook and loop closures and accented with false buttons to help first responders maintain a clean appearance. Additionally, underarm grommets and sleeve roll tabs make for an extremely well-ventilated uniform shirt that keeps first responders cool while they keep us safe.
“The shirt was designed with police officers, security guards, and EMS workers in mind,” said John Ottaviano, Director of Sales and Marketing at Rothco, “which is why we include an epaulet badge-mounting kit with every order to supplement a clean, professional appearance.”
Rothco aims for their new Tactical Uniform Shirts to become an essential piece of workwear for law enforcement and public safety professionals to keep them cool, clean, and comfortable as they carry out their lifesaving duties.
