What Damascus Worldwide does

Damascus Worldwide Inc., doing business as Damascus Gear, designs and manufactures protective equipment for law enforcement, military, and security professionals. Founded in 1955 in Damascus, Oregon as Damascus Leather Shop and currently headquartered in Poultney, Vermont, the company has operated continuously for over 70 years and offers 100+ product styles spanning riot protective suits, upper body protectors, riot and tactical helmets, knee/elbow/shin guards, thigh/groin protectors, tactical and cold-weather gloves, puncture- and cut-resistant gloves, and accessories such as gear bags, MOLLE panels, and Nomex hoods. Product differentiation rests on proprietary in-house technologies including Electrum XK8/XK10 hard shell plates, Protium and FlexCore foam padding, StealthCore lightweight construction, KoreFlex II Micro-Armor puncture protection, Carbon-Tek fiber knuckle protection, GripSkin digital-print grip, Trion-X non-slip surfaces, and Absortek II moisture-wicking lining, plus certifications including TAA compliance and Berry Compliance (special order) for U.S. federal procurement eligibility.

Damascus sells exclusively through a B2B authorized dealer and distributor network — both domestically (Galls, Grainger, Dana Safety Supply, Officer Store, Atlantic Tactical, Southern Police Equipment) and internationally (Tactical Distributors in Australia and New Zealand, Niton Equipment in the UK, MD Charlton in Canada, and Ostrich International and Digisto in Japan). Pricing is not publicly disclosed; customers are directed to contact dealers or Damascus sales, with made-to-order and Berry Compliant configurations available by special order through the Customization Lab. Marketing is concentrated in law enforcement trade publications (Officer Magazine cover, May/June 2023), product catalogs distributed in English, Spanish, and Japanese, and a dealer-facing Resource Center.

The company is a privately held corporation with no disclosed venture capital, private equity, or institutional investors, no publicly traded equity, and no disclosed M&A activity, leadership changes, or regulatory actions.
