Continue ShoppingPREORDER: OTW Shirt
We are now taking preorders for a limited production run on our new CPGear OTW Shirt, version 2.0. Manufactured at our factory in the United States (not overseas!), with genuine, military spec, manufactured-in-Canada CADPAT fabric. This lightweight, breathable combat shirt is designed to keep you comfortable in the field. We've made several improvements to our combat shirt design - see the video above for the details.
NOTE: this listing is to preorder a shirt, and is subject to production times (please read preorder details below before purchasing):
What is it? Similar to the US Marine Corps’ FROG, US Army FRE, and British UBACS combat shirts, the OTW shirt is specifically designed to provide a cooler and safer solution to persons wearing load-bearing gear and body armour.
The facts: The torso of the shirt is constructed of a lightweight/breathable/slightly stretchy fabric (Cotton Spandex 10 oz: 96% cotton, 4% spandex). Cotton material helps keeps you cool, dry, and comfortable when working while wearing armour and load-bearing gear.
Arms, shoulders and neck are constructed of authentic manufactured in Canada CADPAT lightweight combat cloth material (100% cotton), for abrasion resistance. Arms feature large zippered sleeve pockets with generous amounts of Velcro for a flag patch, unit patch, IRR flag, or any patch attachments you'll need. The shoulder pockets can be accessed via the zipper, or via the top Velcro flap (see video for a visual of the pocket design).
Large elbow pocket on each forearm, optionally you can add some elbow padding into this pocket. Adjustable Velcro cuffs for the perfect fit. Ventilated underarm area. Reinforced at the elbow, our shirts are rugged and ready for field use.
Detachable hood, with a minimal-looking zipper so it doesn't attract too much attention from the rest of the garment. Barrel locks on the hoodie strings to allow it to be tightened snugly around the face if desired. We've tested the hoodie under a helmet and it fits nicely. When the hoodie is detached, the zipper is entirely hidden when the neck cuff is folded down, turning it into a regular looking OTW shirt.
What size should you order? Just as you would a t-shirt (for a looser fit, we recommend going one size up). Covered by a 60 day warranty on defects in material and workmanship, this shirt really has it all and has been one of our most popular items over the years.
For reference, our cutter Ryan (150 Lbs, 5'7) is wearing a size large in the video, which is too big for him. A medium OTW shirt fits him nicely.
Price: $229 CAD ($168 USD) for Small, Medium, Large or XL.
S (35-38” chest) M (39-42” chest) L (43-46” chest) XL (47-49” chest).
Jan 3 2022: If you don't see your size available and are getting a "Currently out of Stock" notice, that means they are all gone. At the time of this post, all sizes are available.
Larger sizes (2XL and up) are available on a custom order basis, and only time permitting. These are nearly twice as expensive to produce as we have only a limited amount of shirt fabric available at our factory, and we would be larger sizes one at a time. Please contact for inquires.
Made at our factory in the United States, with quality raw materials sourced entirely from within North America, such as YKK Zippers, military spec Velcro, etc... 🇨🇦🇺🇸
PRE-ORDER INFORMATION (important, please read!): As of January 1st 2023, we are taking pre-orders as we prepare to do a limited production run on these shirts here in our factory. There will be limited quantities available, we only have a limited amount of shirt fabric available at this time (once these are sold out - they're sold out!). We don't have any plans to make these after this production run, due to the scarce availability of this shirt fabric.
Estimated production time to make the shirts is 8-9 weeks here in our US factory. For orders that are placed at the beginning of January 2023: shirts should be complete and ready to ship by late February or the beginning of March 2023.
We are preparing to do production runs of OTW shirts in both authentic Cadpat TW and Arid/Desert Cadpat. However, since Arid/Desert Cadpat items are not currently in very high demand, in the event that there is simply not enough interest in the Arid/Desert Cadpat shirts for us to do a production run here in our factory than anyone who has pre-ordered an Arid shirt will be issued a full refund.
In the spirit of full disclosure we need to have orders of at least 50 Arid/Desert shirts for our sewers to feasibly do a production run of shirts in Arid/Desert.
