Las Vegas, February 14, 2025 – Strike Industries is launching a new division dedicated to revolutionizing smart textile technology for combat, duty, and first responder use. This effort is made possible through Strike’s most recent collaboration with Little King Global, one of the world’s most advanced fabric developers and is a major supplier of smart high performance textiles to major athletic brands including Nike and Under Armour.
This new division’s key mission is to help develop next generation fabric technologies tailored for tactical operations, enhancing comfort, durability, and performance in the field. After months of intensive research and development, we are excited to introduce two breakthrough innovations which are now available for licensing and collaboration with industry leaders and defense forces.
Silent Magazine Pouches
Traditional hook-and-loop (Velcro) fasteners have provided excellent security for magazine pouches and a variety of load bearing equipment for many years. However, the noise they generate can compromise stealth during critical operations.
“Taco” and kydex insert style solutions have been a major improvement but they still leave some room for the possibility of magazines or items falling out. There’s also still some sound inevitably made when removing mags or other gear.
To address these concerns we’ve created a Silent Magazine Pouch which features a 3D Sheer Force Distribution Design (Patent Pending) that completely eliminates all sound when the cover flap is lifted to access your mags or other items while maintaining a strong and reliable fastening performance.
Reactive Camouflage
Strike has also developed a prototype, which was first displayed at 2025 SHOT Show, of a UV Reactive Camouflage fabric that enables soldiers to have their uniform adapt its color based on the UV exposure in their environment – naturally enhancing concealment in the matter of seconds.
Future developments will focus on expanding the reactive properties based on additional environmental factors, including temperature, humidity, and thermal signature management to further aid the modern soldier’s ability to survive and effectively fight in various combat situations.
Join Us In Shaping the Future of Next Generation Textiles and Gear Strike Industries’ Next Generation Textiles and Gear Division is committed to pushing the boundaries of textile technology and is seeking collaborative partnerships to pursue new solutions for our Armed Forces and Allies.
