What's worse when you're airsofting? Sweltering heat or freezing cold? Would you prefer to be blinded by sweat or have your hands so numb you can't fire? Neither seems that appealing, right? And with the grip of winter firmly upon us, there is no better time to load up on some new gear to keep you warm and dry out there. So in our latest blog, we're going to run down a few of our preferred cold weather loadouts from head to toe.

Your extremities are most at risk in cold weather. Keep them safe with flexible and water resistant tactical gloves. Made from advanced composite materials, these tough and quick drying gloves are well suited to harsh winter environments.
When skirmishing in bad weather, trousers take the brunt of the damage. Between crouching, taking cover and running through wet foliage, you need trousers that can stand up to punishment.

Any history buffs know the importance of an army's footwear. Slogging through the mud of the trenches demands footwear that goes above and beyond. Modern cold weather socks offer unparalleled warm and water resistance. Moisture wicking action and an anti-microbial treatment keep your feet dry and flexible, while reinforced heel, sole, and toe sections ensure that these socks provide peak performance, mission after mission.
Boots are the most important part of your winter weather loadout. Good boots need to be totally waterproof, comfortable in all terrains for any length of time and consistently reliable. Suitable for almost every combat scenario, these purpose built boots are fantastic all-rounders. What you wear while you airsoft can make the difference between operation success or failure. It also has a huge impact on how much enjoyment you're having. Stay dry and comfortable, plan ahead for the weather and always make sure you have the right gear for the job.
