Civilian Camouflage Survival Suit

In the comig months I will be putting together a complete survival suit. Not at all like the ones you see around here. This costume doesn't look at all dangerous or tactical. It looks the opposite. It's goal is to provide me with the cover I need in an urban environment full of police officers, civilians, and thievs who, when disaster strikes, at the very best all become untrustworthy. It is as bland as possible so as to not arrouse the suspicions of police. A man walking through the streets in BDUs and an assault rifle send up red flaggs. Similarly someone who looks like they have the latest and greatest gear may be the target of a thief. This is a system designed to get me out of the city and into my home territory. The woods. Once I'm there I'll be able to become the menicing shadow of the forest or the high tech oasis in the wilds. Either way I have to survive the trip there before I can be either.

The first piece of the puzzle is the First aid kit: It's small, but carries enough first aid supplies to keep me going after an assortment of small or medium injuries.

Today I bought a simple folder by Gerber. It's nice and practical, and it's made by gerber. You can't go wrong. The only thing I wish that Gerber hadn't included is the safety. Instead of the normal lokcing mechanism for a folder gerber has installed a button much like a safety on a gun. Slide the button up for hack and slash and slide it down for safe. In theory, a good idea, but I prefer simple. Over all a good knife though.

And now for the much awaited pants, witch I have already used, so they're a bit wrinkly from the basket. The good news though? They work out fine. After being rubbed agianst wood, steel, concrete, cardboard and my rock hard bod for a couple hours there isn't any dammage that I can see. They are all cotton and I'm going to hit them with some silicon spray sometime in the future to make them a bit more water repelant. Unfortunately this will also make them more prone to trapping sweat, so I won't be spraying the whole thing. I'll be leaving the crotch and inside seam un sprayed because that's where most of the sweat comes from and surprisingly enough that's where is least likely to get wet anyways. An't is just wonderfull how the universe works?

Here is what makes these pants desirable though. The quasi cargo pockets on either side are nowhere near the size of traditional cargo pockets, however they are low key and one of them is basically invisible. The pocket on the left side is a bit strange in that the opening for the pocket is in the middle of the pocket, witch will require me to basically thread whatever I want to store or retrieve out of the pocket. Not a huge plus, but then again, not even in the least tactical. And our goal is, what, again? I will probably not store much in this pocket, except perhaps a sewing kit or something else I won't need all the time. The other pocket is essentially invisible. It's built into the existing seam and zips open. The pocket it's self is cavernous as pockets go. It measures 8 inches high and about six deep. Possibilities abound.

Finally bought a shirt you can't see through! Little known fact: Cheep white button ups are basically transparent. Very irritating and very expensive mistake to make. So I bought a shirt that fits my needs. Low key and fairly cheep. Also, the weave is close enough that I can spray it down with silicon and make it a bit more water resistant. Applause. For the outer shirt I don't really want it to DO anything. I just need it to cover up my gun when I get my concealed permit, and anything else I can make fit inside.

Got the flashlight taken care of today, I went with the smallest LED light that I could find. But the tiny size wasn't all I was looking for. (Prepare for a smug sentence) I was looking for something over thirty dollars. (Smug sentence over) Why a flashlight over thirty dollars? Not because I wana be an eletist boob (well, maybe a little) but because you get what you pay for. Anyways, keeping with my strict policy of not giving out brand names in this post (Because I'm not getting payed for selling them) I'll just say I got it at my favorite store in the world, Home Depot. Apart from the price tag I also wanted a flashlight that would blind someone momentarily if I shined it in their eyes. Oh the pain. Anyways, here it is. On my terrible web cam. Someday I may just buy a real camera.
