Tactics | Kevin Kowalski Signature Portal Pants
Introducing the Tactics Kowalski Signature Double Knee Portal Pant.
To design the perfect pants for Kevin Kowalski, one must create something which cannot be restrained by gravity nor friction. Flexible and durable. Light but not flimsy. Allows one to rip, but stops itself from ripping. Tactic’s only choice was to boldly step through a cognitive portal, beyond the familiar realm of denim, and into the vast expanse that is Kevin’s mind.
Kevin’s ripstop double knee pant is light weight, durable, and ready for whatever form of concrete you throw at it. Kowalski built, skated and approved.
