Patagonia Guidewater Shirt in UCP

Monday, February 9th, 2009

Although designed for the commercial market, the Guidewater Shirt’s 30 SPF fabric comes from soft shell work done on ECWCS Gen III. Although, it is intended as a fishing shirt, it may be just the thing some of our readers are seeking. Inherently wind and water resistant, the 4-way stretch nylon with DWR (durable water repellent) breathes as well helping to avoid overheating. Tabs secure rolled sleeves and the shirt features one zippered and one velcro chest pocket.

Available as a limited edition product Spring 2009 in UCP from Patagonia.

Mayhem Admin Pouch from TAG

Friday, February 6th, 2009

Designed specifically for the the Mayhem releasable carrier, this new Admin pouch is longer than it is tall in order to accommodate the front flap. In order to maximize available space, it only requires two PALS rows. Other changes were made such as rotating the flashlight pouch 90 degrees and positioning it along the bottom, horizontally. It also holds Chem lights, pens, etc. in the elastic loops. Additionally, there is a zippered compartment to secure items at the top of the pouch located behind an open pocket. The face of the pouch features pile tape to attach patches.

Available in Black, Coyote, UCP, and Ranger Green.

Sitka Gear

Thursday, February 5th, 2009

A combination of high tech fabrics and design features not found in other hunting brands garnered Sitka a “Field and Stream Best of the Best Award” for 2008. At SHOT Show they unveiled new designs.

What’s more, for 2009 they have integrated two innovative technologies into their product line; W.L. Gore’s Optifade Camo and Ardica’s Wearable Power and Heat.

One product that caught my eye is their softshell Celsius Vest. Unfortunately there don’t seem to be many options for decent tactical softshell vests but the Celsius looks like a good balance between simplicity and performance..

While commercial camo patterns might not fit your use, aside from the currently available Realtree AP and Mothwing Mountain Mimicry, they also offer most styles in solid colors and often at a lower price point than their camo offerings.

Granite Gear Tactical at SHOT Show

Thursday, January 29th, 2009

Granite Gear was well represented at SHOT Show. In addition to their current line of packs and pouches they unveiled a few new items. Additionally, Multicam was prominent in their line.

Lightweight stuff sacks in various sizes were displayed.

Granite Gear also unveiled their new IMAG Interlocking Magazine Pouch system. In addition to a PALS compatible backing, the pouches integrate a hinge style system to attach adjacent pouches to one another. A stiffened web “pin” is inserted into the interwoven loops of each pouch. The pouch’s flap closes with a tabbed closure system very similar to the one used on the M-14 magazine pouch of the M-1956 load carrying system except that the materials are modern.

Also on display was the Chief Patrol pack selected as the new Patrol Pack for SOCOM. The issue ruck will have a few changes from the stock item including changes in direction for zippers, improved hydration interfaces as well as other unspecified alterations.

The Granite Gear Tactical line is distributed by SMG Tactical.
