Officially Licensed MultiCam Products Coming Out Of Brazil
Tuesday, June 9th, 2015
UPDATE: Apparently, these items are made with genuine fabric but not under official license. For example, some of the design features infringe on Crye Precision patents such as the kneepad interface.
FORHONOR is a Brazil-based tactical clothing company that has produced a line of combat uniforms, with patterns including MultiCam, MultiCam Black, and MultiCam Tropic, and are manufactured using US materials.
The combat shirt features a mandarin-style collar with a 1/4 zip. The sleeves are made from 50/50 NyCo ripstop, including bicep pockets and Velcro loop fields for ID and morale patches; the wrists also feature Velcro straps. The torso is composed of FAVO (Honeycomb) 528 fabric developed exclusively for FORHONOR, which facilitates moisture absorption and quick evaporation. This material also offers UVA and UVB protection, as well as being anti-odor and anti-bacterial.

FORHONOR’s Tactical Operational Pant is made of 50/50 NyCo Ripstop fabric. It features 6 pockets: two front pockets, two hindquarters pockets, and two thigh side bellowing pockets. The knees are double reinforced, and accommodate removable kneepads. The waist features 5 belt loops with a 5cm opening, facilitating the use of a tactical belt.

Airstep Army, possibly under the same parent company as FORHONOR, has also produced a MultiCam Combat Boot. The boot features a MultiCam leather and 1000D cordura nylon upper, with a nylon aerated system lining, which enables internal cooling. The camouflaged sole is made of anti-slip rubber, with traction grip at the front and rear and a structure of ribs that prevent aquaplaning.

Vets Corps and SOTech support the VA
Tuesday, June 9th, 2015We received this great note from our friends at SOTech. They continue to do great things with the Veterans community in SoCal.
Normally we are announcing new product designs, but today we are honored that we were able to apply our skills to support the West Los Angeles Veterans Administration Hospital. Secretary Robert McDonald came out to ceremonially reopen the gates of the campus signalling a new day for the campus. A lot of momentous changes have been instituted by the VA and they are returning it to being a “Home for Veterans” rather than just a hospital. The VA asked Vets Corps to make copies of the original 1888 bronze plaques that read “National Soldiers Home”. Vets Corps volunteered SOTech employee Clark Acton who spent years in the film industry making rubber dummy guns to create the casts. At SOTech, Clark pours molds to make resin forms of radios, trauma plates, optics and weapons for pouches from originals that customers supply. This time Clark, a veteran himself, got to make a symbol that will welcome Veterans in Los Angeles to their Soldiers Home for decades to come.

Adams Industries Update
Tuesday, June 9th, 2015We received this update from Adams Industries.
1. 3D Filter Sets: This product is in production and we have delivered over a hundred sets to government end users. They love it. If you have a binocular goggle that accepts PVS-14 style screw-in filters then you can order this product TODAY. Price is $195 per set. We are working on other variants like the PVS-31 and expect to be done with that soon.
2. Color Night Vision (CNVG). OK, so it was color, then it was HD because we tried to make a filter set that would work but everybody said it sucked out too much light and now we have an agreement in place to get the special color tubes we need and the first production tubes will be delivered on the 15th of this month; which means the first CNVG goggles will roll out by the end of the month. We already have military customers lined up. I have attached pictures (seen above). Yes, I know that the bushes are red. Anything that reflects IR heavily including many bushes will show up red. So you’ll be aware of that for the first five minutes, and then you’ll be so happy with the contrast it gives you that it won’t cross your mind again. So, to answer the question everybody is going to ask: Yes. American Citizens residing inside the USA can buy CNVG goggles. They are $16,000; they come in a SENTINEL dual gain control form factor, and delivery is 45 days ARO unless you happen to hit us on a day when we have just received a shipment of tubes and they’re not all spoken for (don’t hold your breath, seriously).
3. SENTINEL SALE. Yep, a sale. Why? Well you try developing color night vision out of your own pocket! Time to generate some cash flow baby. We are offering SENTINEL YG goggles (ITT/EXELIS OMNI VIII MIL SPEC TUBES) $6,750 per unit until the end of this coming week (that’s Friday the 12th for those of you who need to mark your calendar). After that right back to $7,950.
4. LEGIONNAIRE SALE. This one is for LEGIONNAIRE clip-on with L3 OMNI VIII tube. $4,000 until the end of the week. After that back to $4,500.
