Q - What is special about Arrowhead Tactical Apparel products?
A - The Carrier line by Arrowhead Tactical Apparel is the first "tactical" athletic clothing intended to provide the wearer with unprecedented comfort and functionality for EDC. The Carrier lineup blend the best features of traditional tactical pants and high-quality athletic clothes - uncompromised EDC has never been this comfortable, stylish, or versatile.
With a properly-fitting IWB holster, Carrier apparel will keep your sidearm safely secured even during strenuous exercise, including running and weight training.
Q - How does the patented Carrier Retention Waistband work?
A - Watch this short video to see the science behind the waistband design:
Q - Will I need my own holster, or is the holster built in?
A - Carrier apparel is designed for use with IWB holsters for maximum safety and security. You are able to position your holster at any carry position around your waist, including both right and left handed holster placements.
Almost all IWB holsters holsters are compatible, so you can use the nice holsters you have already invested in for your handguns. We strongly recommend holsters constructed from a rigid material like kydex which completely cover the trigger and offer snug, secure retention for your handgun.
Review our Holster Compatibility Guide for a comprehensive overview of the holster models and styles that we have tested with the Carrier Retention Waistband.
Due to the "internal" nature of the supportive waistband, you will need an IWB holster with standard 1.5" clips for best results. OWB, belt-mounted holsters are not compatible with the Carrier platform.
Q - What guns can I carry when wearing Carrier pants or shorts?
A - Our proprietary waistband technology found on all Carrier products will safely support everything from micro compacts to full-size (or even oversized) handguns without sagging or compromising on retention.
Here's a video of the Carrier Retention Waistband supporting two Desert Eagles - because seeing is believing.
Q - Do I need to "set up" my Carrier pants or shorts after I receive them?
A - Carrier apparel may be worn with or without the supportive waistband, though you will need to insert the waistband to safely carry concealed.
Please refer to our "Setting Up Your Carrier Product" video for a step-by-step tutorial on how to properly install the supportive waistband. Videos are available for all belt designs we offer.
Q - Can I use my own 1.5" retention belt with the Carrier products?
A - Our standard Rapid Clasp Belt, Enhanced Rapid Clasp Belt, and upgraded OmniCarry Retention Belt are designed specifically for the Carrier Retention Waistband to provide the most comfortable and most secure carry experience. Most 1.5" retention belts are capable of being installed into the Carrier Retention Waistband, but we cannot guarantee optimal functionality with any other belt besides the ones we sell.

Q - What size will fit me?
A - Please refer to our Size Guidelines for the product(s) you are interested in ordering. For an athletic fit, order true to measurements. For a more relaxed fit, or for individuals with large leg proportions, consider ordering one size up for best results.
