{"product_id":"first-tactical-tactix-system-jacket","title":"First Tactical Tactix System Jacket","description":"\u003cp class=\"product-lead\"\u003eThe First Tactical Tactix System Jacket is a men's tactical outer shell built for field use in variable weather. The shell is constructed from 100% waterproof, fully seam-sealed, wind-resistant nylon engineered to remain breathable under sustained activity. A zip-in SoftShell Long Jacket is included, extending the system's range across temperature conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt to Block the Elements\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Tactix outer shell uses 100% waterproof nylon with full seam sealing, closing the stitching lines that are a common failure point in less thoroughly constructed shells. Wind resistance is built into the same fabric layer, so the jacket does not rely on a separate liner to manage wind chill. For buyers who work or train in unpredictable outdoor conditions, a shell that handles rain and wind without adding a separate layer reduces what you carry and what you manage in the field.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eBreathability Under Movement\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe nylon shell is specified as breathable, allowing moisture vapor from exertion to move outward while blocking external water. This matters on extended wear: a waterproof shell that traps heat and sweat becomes uncomfortable quickly and can impair performance. The Tactix shell is designed to move with the wearer, which supports breathability during dynamic activity rather than only at rest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eZip-In SoftShell System\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe included SoftShell Long Jacket zips into the outer shell, creating a layered system from two components that can also be worn independently. The SoftShell is sold separately as well, so a buyer who already owns one shell can add the other without repurchasing the pair. This modularity lets the system adapt to a wider range of conditions than either piece covers alone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWaterproof outer shell:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% waterproof nylon construction with full seam sealing\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWind and weather resistance:\u003c\/strong\u003e wind-resistant fabric designed to move and breathe during activity\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZip-in SoftShell:\u003c\/strong\u003e SoftShell Long Jacket included; also available separately\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eYKK zippers:\u003c\/strong\u003e industry-standard zipper hardware throughout\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePrym snaps and Duraflex hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e reinforced closure and adjustment components\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n  \u003cthead\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n      \u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/thead\u003e\n  \u003ctbody\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFirst Tactical\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eShell Material\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e100% waterproof, breathable, fully seam-sealed, wind-resistant nylon\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eZipper Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eYKK\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSnap Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003ePrym\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eFrame Hardware\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eDuraflex\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eSoftShell Long Jacket (also sold separately)\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAvailable Color\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eBlack\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n    \u003ctr\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003eAvailable Size\u003c\/td\u003e\n      \u003ctd\u003e2X-Large Regular\u003c\/td\u003e\n    \u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWho This Is For and Isn't\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-yes\"\u003eThe First Tactical Tactix System Jacket suits male wearers who need a waterproof, wind-resistant outer layer for field, patrol, or outdoor training use in wet or variable conditions. The zip-in SoftShell system extends its usefulness across a range of temperatures, and both pieces can be worn independently or together.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-fit-no\"\u003eThe Tactix System Jacket carries no ballistic or stab-resistance rating and provides no protection against ballistic or edged-weapon threats. It is not a substitute for body armor or any rated protective equipment. Only one variant (Black, 2X-Large Regular) appears in the current product data; confirm available sizes before ordering if fit is a close requirement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eCommon Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat does \"fully seam-sealed\" mean for a waterproof jacket?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eOn the First Tactical Tactix System Jacket, fully seam-sealed means that every stitch line on the outer shell has been sealed with tape or bonding material, closing the needle holes that stitching creates. Standard waterproof fabrics can still leak at unsealed seams; full seam sealing eliminates that gap, making the shell reliably waterproof across the entire surface rather than only between seams.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eIs the SoftShell Long Jacket included, or does it need to be purchased separately?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe SoftShell Long Jacket is included with the First Tactical Tactix System Jacket. It is also sold separately, so buyers who already own one component can purchase the other on its own. Both pieces can be worn independently or zipped together as a layered system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eDoes the Tactix System Jacket offer any ballistic or stab protection?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eNo. The First Tactical Tactix System Jacket is a weather-protection outer shell with no ballistic rating and no stab-resistance rating. It is tactical clothing designed for weather and field use, not a protective garment rated against ballistic or edged-weapon threats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"product-faq-q\"\u003eWhat hardware is used on the zippers and closures?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"product-faq-a\"\u003eThe First Tactical Tactix System Jacket uses YKK zippers, Prym snaps, and Duraflex hardware. YKK and Prym are widely used in professional and military-grade garments for their durability and consistent performance. Duraflex hardware is a common choice for load-bearing and adjustment points on tactical gear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"First Tactical","offers":[{"title":"Black \/ 2X-Large \/ Regular","offer_id":67031322886515,"sku":"KRC-FT-118502-019-XXL-R","price":562.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1926\/7025\/files\/ft-118502-sq.jpg?v=1791005138","url":"https:\/\/bulletproofzone.com\/products\/first-tactical-tactix-system-jacket","provider":"Bulletproof Zone","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
