Compact Fire-Starting Kit – Built for Survival and Emergency Ignition

The Fire Patch Kit transforms a subdued Velcro storage morale patch into a pocket-sized firecraft system. Loaded with waterproof tinders, matches, and a ferrocerium rod, this kit ensures you can create fire under tough conditions. When paired with the covert storage patch, the setup is bulkier than a standard morale patch—but provides a discreet, always-on-hand ignition source.

"A prudent person foresees danger ahead and takes precautions. The simpleton goes blindly on and suffers the consequences. - Proverbs 27:12"

— CHARLES, SRO FOUNDER & FORMER LAW ENFORCEMENT.

We aren’t the Amazon of survival. We’re a small, opinionated shop that carries gear we’d stake our own lives on — and we back every piece with real support.

02

Authenticated

Factory-direct from authorized dealers. No grey-market, no refurb, no knockoffs. Your warranty is real.

03

Supported

HQ in California. Orders ship from our US warehouse. US-based customer care.

VETERAN-MADE CONCEALED EDC

Survival gear hidden inside a morale patch. Hand-built by a Special Ops veteran outside Fort Bragg.

Superesse started in 2014 with Wesley — a US Army Special Operations Command veteran with SERE and unconventional warfare training — making paracord bracelets for his team as a morale boost. The bracelets became wearable survival kits, integrating flashlights, fire-starters, fishing tackle, and whistles into a single strap. Today Superesse is run by Wesley and his wife Diana out of North Carolina near Fort Bragg — still a husband-and-wife shop, still handmade, still built on the assumption that the gear you need most is the gear you happen to be wearing.

  • Founded in 2014
  • Veteran and Law Enforcement owned and operated
  • Husband-and-wife team — handmade production
  • Based in North Carolina near Fort Bragg
  • Specialized in paracord straps, hidden-compartment patches, and concealed EDC

Answers, straight up.

Product-specific questions on the left. Shopping with SRO on the right. Both open-ended — hit us if we missed one.

Shopping with SRO
How long does shipping take?

Most orders process within 1–3 business days from our warehouse. From there: 5–7 business days economy, 2–3 business days expedited, or overnight if you need it fast. Free economy shipping on orders over $150 (contiguous US). Alaska, Hawaii, and Pro Eagle / freight items are quoted at checkout. You’ll get a tracking number and link the moment your order ships.

What’s your return policy?

30 days from the day your order arrives. Gear has to come back unused, with all original tags, stickers, and packaging intact. For standard items we’ll send a prepaid return label and deduct return shipping from your refund. Oversized or freight returns are on you, unless the item showed up damaged, defective, or wrong — in which case we cover it.

Refunds hit your original payment method within 10 business days of approval.

What can’t I return?

Final-sale items, gift cards, food and drink products, personal-care items, anything customized or engraved, briefs (hygiene), and hazardous materials. If you’re not sure whether something qualifies, email us before you order — we’ll tell you straight.

Do you ship outside the contiguous US?

Yes. Alaska, Hawaii, and US territories ship on freight-quoted rates calculated after checkout. International orders are available worldwide at variable rates; duties and import fees are the customer’s responsibility. EU customers get a 14-day cancellation window per EU consumer law, on top of our standard return policy.

My package arrived damaged — what now?

Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com within 7 days of delivery with your order number and clear photos of the damage (product + packaging). We’ll replace, refund, or ship a return label on us — no back-and-forth. Damaged, defective, or wrong-item claims never cost you shipping.

Can I talk to a human before buying?

Yes. Email info@stayreadyoutdoors.com — we answer every message ourselves, usually within a few hours during business days. We carry this gear, we use this gear, and we’d rather talk you out of a kit that doesn’t fit your mission than sell you the wrong one.

Do you offer a military/first-responder discount?

Yes. Active-duty and veteran military, police, fire, EMS, and medical first responders get 15% off every order. Verify through GovX at checkout — one-time, secure, and reusable across thousands of brands. Discount applies automatically once you’re verified.
