Limited Edition Anniversary Giggle Bush Hat in Platatac Camo

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2021

The Platatac GBH-R is one of my favorite Recce Hats and this limited edition version has a special story.

The Platacam Anniversary Limited Edition has been created to celebrate 33 years of Platypus Outdoors. Platacam is a digital camoflague pattern developed in the early 2000s as an alternative to Auscam. It was trialled by Tactical Police Units throughout Australia, but sadly never became an offical pattern. In 2008 Australian Special Forces used Platacam in ops as part of it’s trial process, but lost out to MultiCam.

This is an extremely limited run using fabric from the 2008 SF order. Once these are sold these will not be made again.

RVCA All The Way Poncho

Monday, May 17th, 2021

Admittedly, the Woodland camouflage caught my eye, but it made me consider that as organizations integrate females into their formations the need for additional modesty while changing clothing becomes more prudent.

The All The Way Poncho from RVCA offers just that. Essentially, it’s a large, poncho-shaped cotton towel that can be donned over your marops gear and there’s enough room to swap clothing underneath.

Sneak Peek – Platatac Kurtz Jungle Shirts in Tigerstripe

Monday, May 3rd, 2021

The smell, you know that Tigerstripe smell. Smelled like victory.

Or so Lt Col Kilgore would have been saying if he was wearing one of Platatac’s exclusive Kurtz jungle shirts.

In collaboration with Platatac, the UK’s Flimmuur (who made the fabric) is bringing CUTS combat shirts and Tac Dax combat trousers in Tigerstripe as well as the Kurtz jungle shirt.

0241 Tactical Offering “ Fake-o-flage” Russian Camo

Wednesday, April 28th, 2021

0241 Tactical jumped at the chance to get a print of the Fake-o-flage Russian camouflage used to make uniforms for actors playing Russian troops in Red Dawn. Apparently in 1984 California Soviet uniforms were difficult to come by…so this pattern was made for the movie.

0241Tactical will be making Tactical Operators Pullovers and Smock-lites (as well as Beanies and Neck Gaiters) in this pattern.
