DURITex™ is used by U.S. Special Forces and law enforcement agencies in both the United States and Canada to improve hygiene, and control odour.

Military personnel face elevated hygiene risks due to prolonged close quarters living and working conditions.
Extended field exercises, stress, and long deployments often lead to issues like body odour, foot odour, and general hygiene deterioration.
While odour may seem trivial, it can compromise tactical positions, strain interpersonal dynamics, and contribute to disease spread within units.

• Unlike conventional gear that quickly succumbs to sweat, grime, and contaminants, DURITex™-treated fabrics remain odour-free, bacteria-free, and comfortable- even after prolonged use.
Simply air-drying the apparel after training or deployment leaves it decontaminated, fresh, and ready to wear - no washing required.

Solution

Integrating DURITex™ into all military soft gear can dramatically reduce bacterial presence, thereby minimizing infections and eliminating odour.

By eradicating 99.99% of bacteria, fungi, and microbes from military textiles, we can enhance comfort and reduce disease burden.

Our advanced antimicrobial formula is engineered to be exceptionally potent.

When worn, DURITex-treated fabrics actively transfer their protective properties to other soft materials they come into contact with, including adjacent clothing, gloves, and gear. This ensures that the defense extends beyond the single garment, creating a more comprehensive shield against pathogens and odor-causing microbes across your entire loadout.

TESTIMONIALS

Capability of this shirt goes far beyond what it’s advertised to do!

“The Ghost Tactical shirts are incredibly comfortable yet form fitting in all the right places. 100% cotton but it doesn't shrink is an engineering feat in itself. Despite the fit and comfort, this shirt is the most rugged shirt I've ever owned. Two months of PT, 3-5 days per week, hang dried each day, never washed in a machine, it fit perfectly every time I put it back on and never stunk. The capability of this shirt goes far beyond what it's advertised to do.“
M. Thompson, US Marines, SERE
After wearing 24 days without washing, no stink!

“As field survival instructors we spend over 80 hours per month in the mountains of Northwest Maine teaching students global survival tactics. We can easily cover 20 clicks in just two days and having the right gear is essential for both students and instructors. I've worn my shirt for a total of 24 days in the field without washing it, hung dry each night, and it fits great and the best part, it never stinks! It doesn't matter if it's below freezing or 85 degrees with full kit, these shirts are made to last and surpass all expectations.“
A. King, US Navy, SERE Instructor
I wish the military would get on board!

“The Ghost Tactical shirts are an all around great product. I wish the military would get on board with this company as a standard issue shirt because the quality, comfort, and durability. I wore my shirt for 15 days worth of gym time without washing it just to see if it would live up to the hype and it never once started to smell. Ghost Tactical needs to start making underwear because five skivie rolls would probably last an entire 8 month deployment.“
A. Tofte, US Marine, SERE Instructor
Sucked the smell out of my vest!

“So far the shirts are on point! They sucked the smell out of my vest! The shirts are seriously magic though! I will be ordering more shirts (for me and gifts to the guys I work with). I wore the regular cut shirt for a week without washing and it has no odor!”
~N. Botts, Police Officer
This shirt is the real deal!

“I bought 2 of the t-shirts in black. I wore one under my duty vest during a warm stretch this spring. After a 12 hr shift it was soaked in sweat, but there was NO smell. Every police officer (and their spouses) know we stink after a shift. I was amazed. I let it air dry over night and wore it for my next two 12 hr shifts. Still no odor. After the 3rd shift, I had my wife smell the shirt. She was amazed when I told her I had worn it for over 36 hrs under my vest. I was skeptical, but this shirt is the real deal. I wish we had them in Iraq 14 yrs ago!”
~B. Mounts, Police Officer
Holds up to SWAT training day in full gear with no funky smells!

”I decided to wear the Ghost Tactical shirt on a SWAT Training day. I figured if it doesn’t smell after a full day of SWAT training, in full gear, then we may be on to something. I was surprised with the comfort of the shirt. The material felt soft against my skin and there was no chafing or movement of the material. It was actually a little more comfortable than the dry fit shirts that most of us swear by. At the end of the day I noticed that there was no smell to the shirt, which was surprising. I took the shirt home and tossed it in the washer. My thoughts were that whatever the shirt was coated with would just wash off, but that has not been the case. I am surprised to say that I use the shirt at least once a week to hit the gym in and I wear it now on every SWAT training day. So far the material has held up to the abuse, and it does not have the nasty, funky smell my other shirts get.”

Ghost Tactical’s origins are closely intertwined with American military operators who support our product development efforts. One of the most significant partnerships has been with the USN/USMC SERE program. Ghost Tactical base layers treated with DURITex™ technology were tested, and approved, by US Military SERE specialists under some of the harshest conditions for textiles in the world.

The United States Military SERE school (Survival, Evasion, Resistance, and Escape), is a training program that prepares U.S. Military Personnel to survive and “return with honor” in varied survival scenarios. During training, students are subjected to situations that would render any other base-layer ineffective after long periods of neglect. Ghost Tactical base layers exceed all mission requirements and provide the soldier with the active antimicrobial technology they need to stay effective. Operators from other special operations units have also integrated Ghost Tactical base layers into deployment loadouts and use DURITex™ antimicrobial odor-control technology for its superior performance, comfort and durability.
