Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey : Innovative Protection

Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey, based in Montreal, Canada, today announced that its’ unique line of cut-resistant skate socks has received clearance for use in NHL games, by the National Hockey League.

The specialty protective equipment company has continued to grow, since launching an innovative line of high-performance, cut-resistant garments in 2009, that provide key protection for hockey players, that traditional equipment does not.

Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey protective hockey socks are already being used by a number of NHL hockey players, including Travis Moen of the Montreal Canadiens, who was protected from sustaining a potential career-ending injury last season.

Key benefits of Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey skate socks include:

Ø The products essentially look, feel and stretch like athletic socks, while offering prevention of potential career-threatening injuries.

Ø Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey skate socks use Tuff-N-Lite Cool™ patented technology, that conducts heat away from players, keeping them comfortable and dry throughout the game.

Ø Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey garments use light, breathable fabrics, which are not woven, so they stretch in all directions, increasing player comfort.

Ø Tuff-N-Lite™ Hockey is the first supplier in the industry to use Micro-Texpur® technology, which is an eco-green antimicrobial agent.

The innovative technologies and patents created and used to-date, for the first generation of protective gear are also currently being utilized to develop other leading protection for professional and amateur hockey players and hockey enthusiasts alike, including: wrist guards, goalie leg tubes and slash guards, among others.

Products are currently available (USA) online and distributed by Arrow Hockey and Sports Corp.

Products are currently available (Canada) at select retailers including Source For Sports, Pro Hockey Life, Hockey Experts, Sports Rousseau, and Play It Again Sports.

Whose got the MOST Cut, Slash and Abrasion Resistance?

2010-07-25T07:57:00.000-07:00

There's people making false claims out there . . . go figure. I have recently learned about a company (outside the USA) and they swear that they have the best clothing to protect from cuts and slashes.

We brought their material to our Lab and guess what?

1) It looks EXACTLY like ours; and

2) It has a LOWER cut test.

We are ANSI Cut Level 4. That is EN388 Level 5.

If anyone is interested in the actual numbers email me at: tuff@tuffnlite.com and I will be happy to provide the actual Lab data.

With all the FALSE advertising out their in cyber space remember this people: Tuff-N-Lite is the strongest, lightest, and most comfortable cut, slash and abrasion resistant clothing available today.

Now I would like to issue a challenge to all the copy cats out there. Want to go "head to head" with us? We will pay to have an outside independent lab compare our clothing to ANY brand. I will tell you this, if it's Chain mail fine, you win, but if it's textile and light, comfortable, breathable, and in some cases even "see through" and stronger than aramid -- its us!

Bring it on now . . .

Let's see who is the best!!!

Cut, Slash and Abrasion resistant Hockey Socks

2010-03-30T07:03:00.000-07:00

Did you know we now DO Hockey? Tuff-N-Lite® Hockey.

In fact there are NHL Teams now wearing our socks and Hockey Players in the 2010 Winter Olympics wore our Hockey Socks. There were players on Team USA and Team Canada that wore our socks in the Olympics. I won't say exactly who since I did not ask for permission but if you watched the USA vs. Canada Final Game then you definitely saw an outstanding player who wears Tuff-n-Lite . . .

We are not saying that we are the best (maybe we are) but we ARE saying that we are experts in technology and that we have innovative and groundbreaking products in different areas. SO now we protect Hockey Players with the same patented technology that we have used for years to protect Police, Motorcycle Riders and Employees (Industrial Safety).

Visit us at:

www.tuffnlitehockey.com

The great thing about Tuff-n-Lite technology is that it can be applied to just about anything! From Hockey to Extreme Sports to Police Clothing: if you need high level protection from cuts and you want to be comfortable try us. You won't be disappointed.

Tuff-n-Lite in Japan & Italy!!!

2009-12-12T09:10:00.000-08:00

Did you know that we are becoming popular around the world?

Tuff-n-Lite Police Gloves are now being used in Japan and Italy. Our Cut, Slash, and Abrasion resistant clothing is also being considered for use by the Governments of other foreign countries (we are not at liberty to discuss which ones until they make their final decision).

This raises a question: Why are we becoming more popular outside the USA? Because we make great products and the rest of the world highly values Safety products made in the good ole USA. People know that in the USA we pride ourselves on providing top quality safety clothing. If you are a member of Law Enforcement and would like to try our products call our HQ at (828) 322-6975 and tell them your read our Blog and want to try Tuff-n-Lite Police gloves.

Like our Police Gloves??? They are cowhide but the secret is the Tuff-n-Lite glove liner which is 2.5 times STRONGER than kevlar. It is made of the same material that goes into bulletproof vests. The glove liner itself is actually 7 times stronger than leather!!! That's why foreign governments are putting these gloves on their officers.

Want the same gloves but with added knuckle protection for riding Motorcycles? Try our Tuff-n-Lite Motorcycle gloves.

WHERE'S THE CHOOK? FACEBOOK FANCLUB

2009-08-05T21:09:00.000-07:00

OKAY okay okay, this does not have anything to do with Tuff-N-Lite, but checkout this hysterical shizzie called "WHERE'S THE CHOOK? FACEBOOK FANCLUB" and if you spot the Chook, take a picture or post it - and let people know.

In the words of John Stuart "Here is your daily moment of Zen."

Tuff-N-Lite Blue Jeans are here!!!

2009-07-29T21:37:00.001-07:00

We did it. We made cut, slash and abrasion resistant blue jeans. Wear 'em on your motorcycle. Wear 'em at your job or on a Construction site. Wear 'em fishing, or moving furniture.

These suckers are TOUGH. Cut Level 4 on the ANSI scale. The Lab test number was amazing. These will be available on our website at www.tuffnlite.com.

All the other jeans I have seen out there have reinforced panels. Those are all good products but these are better! You never know what part of your body is going to take an impact or cut. Why go for "panels" when you can have FULL COVERAGE.

Tuff-N-Lite.

We do what nobody else is doing: Making cool products that keep you safe.

Everyone wears jeans to ride and that's not the safest gear but who wants to go somewhere looking like the road warrior if your not doing a Track Day?

Check us out!!!

Have suggestions? Want to design a safety product? Let us know.

Who We Are

2008-11-12T23:10:00.000-08:00

Chances are if you have bought or used composite gloves in the last couple of decades . . . you already know us. Our parent company Supreme Corp. makes the yarn that is in gloves from most of the major producers of composite gloves.

About two and a half years ago we saw a need for safety clothing that does not degrade from UV (sun) light, perspiration, salt water, sweat, bleach, and is comfortable to wear. Since then we have been on a quest to make the best and most innovative clothing for any area where the old "tried and true" is just not good enough.

2008-11-12T10:01:00.000-08:00

This is our MOTORCYCLE SHIRT

Our idea is this . . . it is a hot summer day and your riding to the store. Are you going to zip up your leathers? We don't do that!

Now you just throw on your TUFF-N-LITE MOTORCYCLE SHIRT and your (skin) is good and protected if you go down. The best thing about it is that the air passes right through it!

If you hold it up to the light you can actually see right through it.

The hard part was getting a good picture of our MC Shirt because of the reflective piping. It must be made of some super reflective material because a camera flash lights it up like neon. We all know that the number one excuse for run-ins with drivers is the old excuse "I didn't see you!" Well this bad boy lights up! I will post a "normal" pic for everyone to see.

If you have any ideas on how to improve our Motorcycle gear drop us an e-mail at TUFFNLITE@gmail.com!

Be on the lookout for a futur model with insets for CE approved armor.

Tuff-N-Lite is . . . MOTORCYCLE SAFETY CLOTHING!

2008-10-18T10:09:00.000-07:00

We ARE TUFF-N-LITE.

WE MAKE SAFETY CLOTHING.

CUT RESISTANT!

SLASH RESISTANT!

ABRASION RESISTANT!

We can CREATE special safety clothing for your company, school, sports team, and more!

We are currently used in Police, Military, Motorcycle, Bicycle Racing, Boat Racing, Hockey, Figure Skating and Industrial Applications.

We are widely becoming accepted as an Industry Standard in the Glass Industry where for years companies used poly arimides. The problem with these Aramid products is that they are constantly degrading from the moment they are produced. Our Tuff-n-Lite products are made from a patented yarn and patented manufacturing process and we are stronger, lighter and more comfortable than those older products. We are 100% made in the USA but Tuff-n-Lite is now being tried all over the world.
