Patagonia Jungle Uniform

Thursday, September 12th, 2013

I received a couple of questions about the new Patagonia Jungle Uniform so I thought I’d share a little more info. They were designed specifically for a SOF customer and are made from a 100% nylon fabric.

-Built specifically for the jungle environment.
-Lightweight, durable & quick-drying with a DWR finish and 50+ UPF sun protection.
-Mesh opening and gator designed to allow maximum airflow and protection from small jungle pests.
-Innovative pocket designs to allow for rapid drainage and maximum load carriage.
-Articulated knee panel with pocket that accepts the Versatile Integrated Knee Protection (VIKP) knee insert.
-Printed Quietloop
-Berry Compliant & Made in the USA.

DSEi – Patagonia

Wednesday, September 11th, 2013

Patagonia is on hand at the Elite Defense booth and the Europeans are eating it up! They are especially interested in the Jungle Uniform which I wasn’t sure would actually be released for sale due to US military demand.

Already available for Pre-order through Elite Defense, the graphic above shows you what is being offered. If you are looking for details on any of the items, visit the SSD archives at www.soldiersystems.net/tag/Patagonia.

DSEi – Platatac

Wednesday, September 11th, 2013

Almost in stealth mode, we ran across this excellent bush hat from Platatac while visiting the Edgar Brothers booth. Dubbed the Grouse Bush Hat – Recon (Grouse is Australian for awesome) it’s part of a complete ensemble that includes a short and trousers.

And while it’s packed full of features like diagonal vents with mesh backing, a short brim and rear adjustment, that’s not the real story. This hat is 100% cotton ripstop in MultiCam. Platatac worked with Duro to produce this fabric based on the material used in the old jungle fatigues. That means cottony comfort gents.

That’s a good looking hat.

Notch Gear

Wednesday, September 4th, 2013

I found out about Notch Gear from the folks at King’s Arsenal. When I first looked at the hat design it didn’t click right away. Not until I saw the photo below. And then it all made sense.

If you have a rolled bill on your cap, you may have to tip back on your head if you are wearing glasses of any sort. But not anymore. These guys came up with an innovative solution; the notch. Or, more specifically, soft, durable notch inserts that accommodate your eyewear.

They already offer a Kryptek Highlander cap and they are getting ready to introduce a Typhon version. They will giving one of these away once they hit 1,000 ‘Likes’ on Facebook. Check their page if you are interested.
