California-based Athletic Recon was founded in 2012 by the founder of the Paul Frank brand along with several other guys who shared two things; love of endurance sports and a solid grounding in the textile industry. Turns out they love camouflage as well and you’ll see some interesting new patterns in their brand. Athletic Recon has also started working with wounded warriors to help them in their recovery.

OR Summer Market – Krieg Climbing

Thursday, August 7th, 2014

Climber and Outdoor rep Kurt Smith has always had a nickname of “The General”. While walking the halls of OR Summer Market yesterday he saw me and asked me to come and check something out. What I saw was Sam Krieg of Krieg Climbing hard at work at his sewing machine making a custom chalk bag for Kurt.

Remember I told you that Kurt’s nickname is “The General”? Turns out, Kurt’s favorite General is George Patton. Sam Krieg made up some fabric specifically for Kurt. How awesome is it that a guy named Krieg is making up a chalk bag featuring Gen Patton?

OR Summer Market – Petzl

Thursday, August 7th, 2014

The Tactikka + and Tactikka +RGB we mentioned at SHOT Show are in inventory and now shipping. They offer up to 140 lumens and the Tactikka + now includes an integral Red LED rather than the old flip up filter. These run off of constant light technology meaning the light will stay constant for the prescribed rating over the life of the battery. They use 3 AAA batteries with easy access to the compartment.

Petzl also introduced a new buckle on the headband that is crush tested to 80 kg so you won’t accidentally break the buckle. Another mounting option beside the headband is the Kit Adapt which uses adhesive to mount the lights directly to a variety of surfaces including helmets, walls, etc.

The lights are available in Black, Tan and Camo. Additionally, these are available in Berry compliant models (Tan and Black). These are the first Berry options from Petzl and a great end of year purchase.
