THE BASICS

What is an IFAK?

An IFAK is an individual first aid kit: the kit you keep on your own gear to treat life-threatening bleeding in the minutes before help arrives, whether the injury is yours or someone else's.

A real IFAK kit is built around bleeding control: tourniquets, hemostatic gauze, and chest seals, because those are the injuries that cannot wait.

FIND YOUR FIT

Match the kit to where it rides.

The D.A.R.K. is the full-size option for a belt, pack, or rig. The Slim flattens the same mission into a lower-profile pouch. The EDC Trauma Kit is the pocket IFAK you will actually have on you, and the S.P.E.A.R. is the rip-away rig for duty use.

Wherever a tourniquet choice is offered, CAT Gen 7 or SOF-T Gen 5, pick the one you train with the most.

IFAK questions, answered

What does IFAK stand for?

Individual first aid kit. The term comes from military medicine: one kit, on one person, so the gear is always where the injury is. Ours are built on the same principle for civilians, law enforcement, and anyone who carries.

What should an IFAK contain?

Bleeding control first: a tourniquet, hemostatic gauze, chest seals, gloves, and a compression bandage. Adhesive bandages treat inconveniences; an IFAK treats emergencies.

Where should I carry an IFAK?

Where you can reach it with either hand: belt line, plate carrier, pack strap, or ankle. The Ankle Kit exists for exactly the people who cannot add another pouch to their belt.

Do I need training to use one?

The gear works best in trained hands. Direct Action Response Training covers tourniquets, wound packing, and chest seals in hands-on classes. Get the kit, then get the training.
