Combat gear - base layers

Base layers include boots, gloves, boxer, socks and any “under armour” compression clothing you will want to use.

Boots

Let’s start with the boots; you need black urban assault boots (not camo or any long distance “forest boots”). The boots should facilitate the attachment of a spur/spike on the back of the boots in order to use as a weapon for anyone assaulting you from behind. Also, the boots should incorporate some anti-blunt-trauma material which will help you to withstand any gunshot hits you might suffer (the ballistic boot protector in combination with good boots will be optimal).

The following are examples of boots that will suit your needs:

ATAC Shield Boot 8” (511tactical.com)

I chose the XPRT Tactical Boot 8" Boot due to the fact that they didn’t have the above in my size. Both offer a “Shock Mitigation System” and has received the highest of ratings. Prices range from 130 to 180 USD. I bought mine from polimil.com, a great distributor with a wide range of products.

Socks

X-Socks Speed Metal or any other expensive high-tech sport socks available

http://www.trailspace.com/gear/x-socks/speed-metal-sock/

Description: help cool your feet during a long, hot run with X-Sock's Xitanit conductive technology. The X-Sock Speed Metal Running Sock incorporates heat-conducting fibers, air-conditioning airflow channels, and supportive blister-reducing bands to keep your feet supremely comfortable, mile after mile. It sounds really techy-and it is. You'll also find that it makes a great difference.

Skins Compression gear

I would highly recommend Skins Long Sleeve Top and the Skins Compression Leggings

Benefits with Skins compression gear:

Will enhance your performance in training and recovery and give you an edge over your opponents (SWAT and regular system protectors).

They enhance circulation from engineered gradient compression which assists in reducing lactic acid build-up. A precision fit (choose your size from their size chart) based on your body mass index algorithm. Focuses muscle power and dramatically reduces muscle vibration. Moisture management wicking draws moisture away from your skin keeping you dry. Optimises your body temperature in warm or cool conditions. The top changes the shape of the diaphragm and encourages better posture which acts as a respiratory aid and improves performance. During aerobic activity where muscles need the body to process more oxygen a Skins top will help the wearer to breathe into the upper chest cavity and effectively take larger breaths.

Long sleeve top and leggings costs from 135 -180 Euro.

Assault Gloves
