Proven in combat by soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan, the Shield Trauma Kit is 4.5” x 6”, about ½” to ¾” thick and is designed to help save lives.

“Gear readiness is critical to saving lives,” said Todd Mackler, Vice President, Armor, The Safariland Group. “We’re offering the Shield Trauma Kit for law enforcement officers and other first responders who were tired of bulky pouches and bags and were looking for a way to carry military-grade supplies in a more efficient and accessible package. The Shield Trauma Kit is compact and light enough to be carried by anyone in the field.”

Offered in two models, the Shield Trauma Kit contents are packed in clear, heavy-duty, medical-grade vinyl and organized according to typical injury patterns for maximum efficiency during trauma treatment.

Engineered for instant access even in tight quarters, the half-inch thick unit fits undetectably under body armor and is small enough to be carried in a jacket pocket or duty belt and won’t impede tactical maneuvers or movement in small spaces.

The Model SHTK-1 Intermediate includes six components, and with the Model SHTK-2 Advanced, an additional hemostatic clotting gauze is added for a total of seven items.

Designed to last 24 to 36 months, the Sons Shield Trauma Kit is available now. The Model SHTK-1 Intermediate retails for $55, while the Model SHTK-2 Advanced retails for $100.
