Our Evolution
"Unlike others in our industry, I have been boots on the ground and have real-world mission experience and teach from that experience, not just a textbook. I have faced modern-day challenges in combating terrorism both domestically and abroad.
Drawing from my extensive background in high-stakes security operations, I understand the critical importance of reliable, high-quality gear and equipment. This firsthand experience drove my commitment to developing products that meet the rigorous demands of real-world missions, leading to the creation of SKYDAS GEAR. Our gear is designed with the same precision and attention to detail that I relied on in the field, ensuring it performs flawlessly when it matters most". - Mike Briant
