The Weatherneck – A Quick Release Bandana For The Outdoors

Monday, January 25th, 2016

FOAMCAMO-01

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, 2016

Although 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.

SHOT Show – Outdoor Research Introduces New Outerwear in WL Gore’s Topo Technology

Friday, January 22nd, 2016

Outdoor Research has debuted a new jacket in WL Gore & Associates’ new Topo fabric.  Topo features a stretchable membrane.  

 

The jacket has an articulated, close fit in order to bring the jacket’s Gore membrane closer to the body where it will work better. The Brown segments you see are Topo and allow the jacket to stretch when you layer up for colder temps, yet keep the jacket as close to the body as possible in order to move the perspiration out through the membrane.

 

You can place order now in MultiCam and Coyote.
