This blazer isn’t a jacket with some extra pockets. It’s a high-speed, fully integrated, load-bearing, tactical workhorse. The APEX is a full system featuring a full-length inner panel that accepts MOLLE accessories and a dedicated IFAK pocket for your med kit. A reinforced side pocket also allows for the use of an Uncle Mike’s holster.

Additionally, the APEX features 14 MOLLE attachment points littered throughout the jacket to allow operators to configure their kit for their unique environments. Whether you’re running financials or making coffee in the break room, the APEX allows users to boss up while keeping that head on a swivel.

“Modern gray men need modern solutions,” Gray Man Garments CEO Chad Smith said. “The boardroom can produce threats like no other. The APEX Predator-1 keeps you stay strapped and ready like the high-speed operator you are without compromising professionalism.”

The APEX Predator-1 is set to ship in May with pre-orders underway. Gray Man Garments has given Pew Pew Tactical a special code for 10% off the pre-order. Simply click this link and enter TACBLAZER10 for your discount!
