Summer is in full swing, and whether I'm heading into the office, traveling on weekends, or just spending time outside, I find myself reaching for the same reliable gear. Here's a quick look at 5 Rothco items that have become part of my everyday rotation, and why they've earned a permanent spot in my summer lineup.

Low Profile Cap

• I started the season with the Midnight Black Camo version, and it quickly became my daily cap. The lightweight feel and breathable design make it ideal for hot weather, and the subtle camo gives just the right amount of edge. Lately, I've been adding other colors to my collection, solid colors for workdays and bolder camo patterns for weekend wear.

Tactical Performance Polo Shirt

• These polos have quietly become one of my favorite work staples. They've held up great through long says and high temps. The moisture wicking fabric does exactly what it promises, keeps me dry and comfortable while maintaining a professional look.

Spec Ops Tactical Fleece Vest

• Even in the summer, I find myself in buildings blasting cold AC that feels like it's below zero inside. This fleece vest has been perfect for layering over a tee without overheating. It's lightweight, easy to move in, and helps regulate my temperature.

Relaxed Fit Zipper Fly BDU Pants

• These BDUs have become one of my go-to pairs for everything from weekend travel to everyday wear. The relaxed fit makes them comfortable in the summer heat, and the durable construction holds up wherever I take them.

Guardian 4-Inch Tactical Shoe

• I wasn't expecting to reply on these shoes as much as I do, but once I broke them in, they became my daily pair for nearly everything. From running errands to navigating unexpected downpours, the waterproof design has been a summer lifesaver. Plus, they offer solid foot support without feeling bulky.
