The Recce Skin Kit from Onward Research is pretty ingenious.
This kit offers the ability to apply non-permanent alpine camouflage to your existing Recce Rig pouches. Additionally, it makes the rig more reliable in cold weather conditions.
The kit comes with:
I was delighted to be introduced to the owner of Tiger Tailor during Milipol last week ?in Paris. This company has a long history of manufacturing soldier systems for the French market.
What they showed me has the potential to grow their name and reach. This tarp is made from standard PU coated MultiCam fabric but has been enhanced with a special additive process to offer thermal suppression.
The waterproof tarp measures 2m x 3m and weighs 1kg. It comes with 550 cord to secure it in place and can printed on both sides with different visual patterns.
Unlike many other thermal camouflage systems on the market, this one acts as a diffuser rather than as an insulator.
In this photo we see an unmanned ground vehicle covered by the material in 35 deg C ambient air temp.
They are open to working with manufacturers in friendly nations on this technology.
Made from IRR compliant Multicam fabric, Luminae’s scrim cover breaks up the unit’s outline and helps it blend naturally into surrounding vegetation or terrain. Whether viewed from the ground or through the low-resolution feed of a FPV or reconnaissance drone, the Starlink becomes far less visible than if it were uncovered.
Lightweight and compact, the cover can be packed into a Utility or Small GP Pouch and deployed in seconds when needed.
Despite its low-profile concealment, the cover allows the Starlink to function as normal, maintaining full connectivity while reducing the risk of visual detection.
Compatible with all Starlink models, including:

Conifer VX3 sandwiches 100g PrimaLoft insulation between a windproof membrane outer layer and the breathable membrane inner layer to shut out the cold and keep you dry and comfortable.
“We designed Conifer for hunters willing to endure cold weather when the big bucks move and the hunting gets hot,” said Mike Tussey, Marketing Director Nomad Outdoor. “Late season might be your best shot at the buck of a lifetime, and Conifer VX3 helps you sit comfortably on the stand longer and stay still for that last 15 minutes of shooting light, no matter how cold it is.”
Available in the recently reintroduced Mossy Oak New Break Up pattern, Conifer VX3 includes bib overalls, jacket, trapper hat and flip mitt gloves that protect fingers against the chill butinstantly flip out of the way when it’s time to draw a bow or aim a rifle.
The bib overalls have zippered chest pockets for gear and generous fleece-lined warmer pockets to keep your hands protected in frigid weather. The Conifer VX3 bib overalls retail for $320.
The jacket also has fleece-lined hand warmer pockets and an adjustable, three-piece insulated hood for full coverage warmth. An integrated harness port allows easy access for a safety tether when in a tree stand. The Conifer VX3 jacket retails for $320.
Conifer VX3 flip mitts have thick PrimaLoft insulation and many features to insure hunter comfort in the field. The thumb includes a fleece nose wipe panel, and the tip of the mitt has a bite tab for quick opening. Magnet closures keep the mitten section secured when flipped back and fingers are insulated with stretch fleece. Conifer VX3 flip mitts retail for $65.
The trapper hat has a laminated brushed tricot outer shell with 100g of PrimaLoft inside. Adjustment strap across the back fits most sizes. The trapper hat comes with a warm, removable fleece-lined facemask with silent magnet attachments on the bottom for stealthy on and off. Conifer VX3 trapper hats retail for $65.
Stealth Products Group is a part of LiteFighter Gear. They showed their multispectral Individual Concealment Cover which has undergone evaluation in Hawaii with 25th ID and is set to be checked out by the 82nd Abn Div soon.
It features reversible camouflage pattern and they offer several options.
Featuring their ZIRO Mitigation Technology, it conceals the wearer from:
It’s large enough (67″ x 103″) to conceal the wearer during movement but only weighs 2 lbs. Users can also connect several together to create larger hides or correct equipment from observation.
What’s more, it’s breathable so the wearer won’t overheat while using it. However, heat-absorptive material is placed in typical hotspot areas (chest, shoulders, head, and back) for enhanced thermal protection.
I really like the hood design which is oversized for helmet wear and has both full and 3/4 face cover options that help reduce the heat signature of their head and face. You can see out, but they can’t see in.
Here you can see how compact it is for stowage.
Finally, this is a photo of one of their more sophisticated applications.
Platatc’s Desert Night Camouflage line as seen in this image captured during DSEI is definitely coming and it looks great!
Here’s an update on the C2R FAST Chameleon plate carrier system which looks you to quickly change the color/pattern of the vest.
The new version is compatible with their buoyancy system, offering additional space for the bladders.
CHARLESTON, SC. (September 3, 2025) – Nomad Outdoor announced a pair of new camouflage hoodies, the Spire and the Axe. Both hoodies are designed to help conceal whitetail and turkey hunters while also looking great as casual wear around town.
Spire is a lightweight, half-zip style hoodie that’s great by itself in mild weather, or as the ultimate technical midlayer for the cold. Spire is made of a grid-pattern lofty fleece that helps trap warmth without requiring bulk. It has built-in stretch for easy movement, and the half-zip feature makes for easy on-and-off and adjustable breathability. The outer shell has DWR treatment to help repel water. Available in both the recently reintroduced Mossy Oak New Break Up and Bottomland, the Spire hoodie retails for $120.
The Axe hoodie is a traditional pull-over style with a large, pass-through hand warmer pocket. Made of lightweight fleece, the Axe hoodie keeps you warm without being too heavy. It also has a DWR treatment to help shed early season drizzle or fog. The Axe hoodie works great by itself, or as an extra layer for cold weather. Available in both Mossy Oak New Breakup and Bottomland, the Axe hoodie retails for $75.
Also available in the Axe line are matching gloves and a beanie, both designed for lightweight warmth during mid-season hunts. Both the Axe gloves and the Axe beanie retail for $35 each.
