We’ve talked about it before, Kit Up went into some detail about it. Now you can pre-order it. The bungee creates tension to maintain devices such as counter weights, IR strobes, IR devices, cables, etc. from coming loose when jumping or encountering high-wind conditions. Velcro is great but when it becomes dirty or worn it looses its grip, and paracord and hundred-mile-an-hour tape isn’t much help.

The Special Ops Uniform from SpecOpsShop is a US made uniform available in a variety of colorways. In particular, they feature Hyde Definition’s PenCott family of camouflage patterns.
They offer a certain degree of customization and sizes Small – XLarge, regular and long lengths.
Leveraging lessons learned on the Ghostex program with ADS, Hyperstealth Biotechnology Corporation has unveiled Deceptex. Leveraging, a print-on-demand camouflage service they manufacture camouflage as needed rather than stockpiling it. With over 100 distinct patterns already loaded on the site, they’ve already got our attention.
The concept of operations is simple. Hyperstealth will use their two large format digital inkjet textile printers to print fabric for any Deceptex pattern and this will be manufactured into uniforms.
So what makes this different than Ghostex? For one thing, availability. Ghostex was limited to Government clients whereas Deceptex is available to the general public. Additionally, Ghostex features NIR treatments and Deceptex will be limited to visual spectrum camouflage only.
Deceptex will be available for orders beginning Summer 2012.

Camouflaged jerseys are a regular sight here in the US where sports teams seek to honor our military. During the recent ANZAC Day observance in Australia, jerseys like this were worn during a Rugby tournament.
Apparently, there was some controversy over its use. According to an SSD reader, “fans of the sport have come out in protest along with some well known and respected commentators saying ‘they arent soldiers they are cheapening the fine job our lads are doing in Afghanistan’ etc…even though its the DPDU pattern and not the Multicam that Combat troops wear over there.”
