Tactical Gear Making
DIY Tactical

MILSPEC Monkey
Milspec Monkey is an awesome guy with awesome gear designs in his store, gear reviews and gearmaking information. He's also a Bay Area neighbor and colleague. We swear by the MILSPEC Monkey Stealth Combat Admin Pouch for EDC.
He's also very funny. As you can see from his PALS Dragon, a man has to know when to stop putting pouches on pouches:

Inspirations
Propers where props are due, we wish to thank some of our influences and inspirations in doing this:
Tycho of Penny Arcade: How do I start by describing my love for his writing in a way that will say anything you don't already know because you've already read every word he's ever written in the Penny Arcade Archives?
His witticisms treat the ordinary things we call words like they are sickly creatures clutching their warping stomaches filled with alien life ready to burst from the dying flesh of their host syllables and letters. He writes sentences like they are new and innovative punishments devised by the Supreme Court because lethal injection isn't totally badass enough. And Gabe illustrates these new punishments in comic form as they pass judgement on the heroes and villains of gaming and technology alike. They are the law, and their news posts are daily instruction in the art of written word abuse.
Jonathan Ive, designer at Apple: Apple's designs are almost as amazing as the way Jonathan Ive talks about their design in Apple videos.
Razer: They make the high-performance tactical gear of gaming tools like the Razer Lachesis mice we use.
Humanity+ is an international nonprofit membership organization which advocates the ethical use of technology to expand human capacities. Tactical Corsets has a lot to do with wearable computing and cyborg augmentation. Wearable technology augments the body with capacities beyond that of everyday clothing. Check out the latest H+ Magazine, it's chock full of transhuman goodness!
