First Tactical is an American brand specializing in the design and production of high-quality clothing, footwear, and tactical equipment, primarily intended for uniformed services, military, rescuers, and outdoor enthusiasts.
Origin and Founder
The brand was founded on July 4, 2015, by Dan Costa, also known as the creator and former owner of 5.11 Tactical – one of the most recognizable brands in the tactical clothing industry. After a few years away from the industry, Dan Costa returned, introducing a new brand to the market that aimed to meet the dynamically changing needs of professional users.
Brand Development
Since its inception, First Tactical has focused on innovation and close collaboration with veterans of the military, police, fire department, and rescue services. The products of this brand are created based on the experiences and opinions of people working in the toughest conditions, which translates into their functionality and high-quality craftsmanship.
In 2017, First Tactical joined the Point Blank Enterprises group, expanding the group's offerings with tactical clothing and equipment. Point Blank Enterprises primarily focuses on the production of ballistic protection, such as vests, plates, and helmets, and integration with First Tactical allowed for the completion of the portfolio with specialized clothing and equipment for uniformed services.
