WICHITA, Kan. – While real superheroes may not use capes, Atlanco’s TRU-SPEC® brand product line is now offering military, tactical and law enforcement personnel a full line of protective undergarments featuring CORDURA® Baselayer fabric with freshFX® fabric technology.
“We are excited to expand our relationship with Atlanco to grow the line of TRU-SPEC® apparel featuring CORDURA® Baselayer fabric,” said Cindy McNaull, global CORDURA® brand manager. “Whether they are securing our homeland or fighting enemy forces abroad, we take great pride in providing durable, protective solutions for the men and women that help ensure our safety. Their bravery, courage and valor make them true superheros.”
TRU-SPEC® brand garments made from CORDURA® Baselayer fabric are now available with freshFX® fabric technology. The silver-based additive helps the fabric resist body odor formation, thus enabling the next-to-skin undergarments to provide lasting freshness. Designed to be worn underneath uniforms, the expanded line of TRU-SPEC® brand undergarments is constructed with No Melt/No Drip CORDURA® Baselayer fabric. The patent pending 60/40 cotton-nylon fiber blend reduces the severity of burn injuries by charring instead of melting when exposed to heat. Known for its durability and abrasion-resistant characteristics, CORDURA® Baselayer fabric also provides wearers a comfortable, breathable, lightweight solution with exceptional moisture management properties.
“When it came time to reinforce the TRU-SPEC® brand product line with protective fabric, INVISTA’s CORDURA® brand was the obvious first choice for us,” said Atlanco’s TRU-SPEC® brand President, Bryan DeHart. “The CORDURA® Baselayer fabric line provides the optimal balance in performance fabric technology – and we are pleased to now offer freshFX® fabric technology to our product line-up.”
The TRU-SPEC® brand product line includes the following:
• TRU-SPEC®
