For Immediate Release
Reading, PA. - Elbeco, the leading manufacturer of public service uniforms, has introduced the first battle dress uniform (BDU) specifically designed for public safety and law enforcement use. The new Mil-Spec Basic Duty Uniform is made from Elbeco’s rugged, high quality poly/cotton Tactical Twill weave that provides better color matching and more comfort than typical ripstop BDUs. The new public safety uniform provides exceptional functionality and durability for any use, including EMS, tactical team operations, and every day law enforcement.
Elbeco’s Basic Duty Uniforms are designed with several enhancements not found on typical BDUs, making the new uniform ideal for law enforcement use. These enhancements include a heavy duty #42 brass zipper and slider fly on the pants that is much easier to use than the traditional button fly, and matching shirt and pants pockets with inverted pleats that provide extra roominess and a more professional look. Additionally, the shirts feature a practical stitched down shoulder strap, reinforced by bar tacks, with a removable button featuring a 2" mike/utility opening.
All stitching, fit, parts findings, model configuration, and sizing for Elbeco’s Basic Duty Uniform pants are compatible with US military specification MIL-T-44047E. Some additional features of the new pants include a 6-pocket design, fused flaps, and adjustable side tabs at the waist. Elbeco’s authentic Basic Duty Uniform shirts are designed to surpass typical tactical shirt models and to meet public safety uniform standards. The shirts incorporate a 2-pocket design with snag proof button flaps and cuffs designed for roll-up functionality. Both garments feature reinforced patches at critical points on the garments for added strength.
Uniform sizes range from XSR to XXXXLR (Unisex with normal Basic Duty Uniform sizing and fit). Elbeco’s Basic Duty Uniform pants and shirts are available in true dark navy and black, and can be mixed and matched with the complete Elbeco Tactical Twill product offering.
The new Basic Duty Uniform is available from Elbeco authorized distributors nationwide.
