We are excited to announce that LA Police Gear is now a stocking dealer of Source Hydration.

Founded by Los Angeles area police officers with the mission to provide quality law enforcement equipment at competitive prices with outstanding customer service to their colleagues, LA Police Gear has grown to be one of the preeminent retailers of tactical clothing and equipment in the US.

Check out this UTA review by CanadianWildernessSurvival.com:

“I carry the UTA everywhere I go and it’s been outstanding, allowing me to fill up and be on my way in seconds.  No longer do I have to take the pack off, pull the bladder out, open it, pour in the water, put it all back in, hell it even sounds time consuming when I say it! Now with the UTA all I do is unclip my hose tip, lock on to the bottle and pour, and you’re done! I think it doesn’t get any simpler or faster than that!”

This awesome review was brought to our attention recently and we decided to share it with you.

Read this and you’ll understand why:

The Source WXP Hydration bladder is a bomb-proof, Tier 1 piece of kit that goes above and beyond the competition, and sets a new standard for what we should expect out of a Hydration bladder in the 21st century. I could not be more satisfied with it and for $30 and with many stocking retailers in the US, there is no excuse not to get one.

Note that this is an independent review we had nothing to do with.

UTA is a revolutionary solution for refilling your hydration system while on the move.

UTA allows the reservoir to be filled directly through the drinking tube, eliminating the need to remove the hydration pack from the back, thus saving the soldier time and hassle.

The product concept was developed following a visit with allied troops deployed in Afghanistan. UTA has been designed to fit and standard tap or water bottle but also to work with the 500ml bottles used to supply water in the field.

Small and lightweight, UTA’s flexibility allows it to fit a range of tap/spigot sizes as well as standard size mineral water bottles. To prevent overfilling, UTA visually indicates when the reservoir is filled and will automatically disconnect to prevent damage caused by overfilling.

UTA is compatible with all Source systems featuring QMT (Quick Mate Technology). Simply “click out” the drinking valve from the end of the tube and “click in” the UTA.

Source also offers an Upgrade Kit that will convert non-Source hydration reservoir systems for UTA use.
