When S&S Precision launched their latest iteration of their Performance Denim, they mentioned that they’d be releasing alternative colors in the coming months. At SHOT Show, they had this Khaki variant and they look great.

Weather Wool – Al’s Anorak
Saturday, January 30th, 2016I love wool and I love anoraks, so is it any wonder that when I saw primitive survival expert Bill McConnel wearing this woolen jacket on the latest season of Discovery Channel’s ‘Dual Survival’ I’d want one?
Turns out, it’s called an Al’s Anorak from Weather Wool. I found out the source of the garment before SHOT Show but didn’t want it to become lost in the massive number of posts from that crazy week. So, here it is.
This Anorak has zippers on the sides that can be opened up to make it easier to put on, then zipped shut to make it snug around the waist. The side zips can also be used to vent heat. The Anorak has a tapered fit and without the side-zips some people would have difficulty getting in and out of it.
It even has slotted buttons! The front closure features four of them that secure the opening up to the neck. The hood can be adjusted by means of pull cords at either side with barrel clips to finish the ends of the pull cords.
McConnel was wearing the LYNX camouflage pattern in the show but the anorak is also available in their FullWeight fabric in BLACK and DUFF or in their MidWeight fabric in DRAB. The MidWeight is about 70% the weight of its heavier counterpart.
Available in XS – 5XL but 3XL and up call for a significant uncharge.

The Weatherneck – A Quick Release Bandana For The Outdoors
Monday, January 25th, 2016
The Weatherneck is a quick release bandana made of a micro polyester and spandex double knit stretch material. It was born of a requirement for a comfortable, breathable, quick-removable neck warmer that could be used in a variety of environments. The Weatherneck is built to open and close with magnets, not only providing wearers with a quick don/doff method, but also allowing for quiet don/doff, unlike with Velcro.

Post SHOT Show Wrapup – Hazard 4 Beachhead
Monday, January 25th, 2016Although it was launched last year, this was the first time I had seen the Beachhead hoodie from Hazard 4 in person.
Clothing on a hanger is really hard to photograph so I’ve included the studio shot for clarity.
The Beachhead features an athletic fit and is made from a Lycra blend with a fuzzy backing. It was very comfy to try out and I think the tight weave will be good in the wind. Available now in Black and Coyote, sizes Small – 2XLarge.
