Built from Cordura® 500D and Hex-Cordura® materials, it offers excellent abrasion resistance and weather protection. Designed for balanced everyday or tactical-inspired use, it organizes your gear for fast access while remaining lightweight and durable enough for demanding environments.

TACTICAL APPAREL & GEAR

Born by revolution. Hardened by war. Tactical clothing made in Ukraine since 2014.

M-Tac was born in Ukraine in 2014 during the Revolution of Dignity, when the founders saw that the country's defenders needed military clothing built for real combat — not surplus, not parade-ground. A decade later, M-Tac's factories in Kyiv and Lviv have outfitted soldiers through the war that followed, with production continuing under conditions most brands will never see. Every cut, seam, and pocket has been tested by the people the gear was made for.

  • Founded in Ukraine, 2014
  • Production facilities in Kyiv and Lviv
  • U.S. market presence since 2017
  • Designs military, tactical, and outdoor clothing
  • Combat-tested through Ukraine's wartime years

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.
