There’s a Party in My Pants

Wednesday, November 21st, 2012

Or maybe I was at a party in these pants. Either way, there was a party involved and I was wearing these pants. From a distance they look like British DPM but up close it’s a different story altogether. The Foxtrot-A Pants from Loudmouth Golf feature a rather interesting camo pattern but I wouldn’t recommend these for casual Friday.

Video Footage of the Limited Edition Arc’teryx LEAF MultiCam Atom SV from Tactical Distributors

Thursday, November 15th, 2012

If you’re still on the fence about getting one of the Limited Edition Arcteryx MultiCam Atom SVs, this video footage from Tactical Distributors should help you make up your mind. Granted, it’s MultiCam so it’s a bit of a specialist piece but that’s the point, isn’t it?

It’s a great insulator and packs up quite small. There are also a couple of cool improvements over existing civilian models like a hood adjustment as well as an internal band collar.

Get yours before they are gone.

Arc’teryx Veilance Graph Sweater

Wednesday, November 14th, 2012

We haven’t mentioned the Veilance line from Arc’teryx in quite some time. Some consider the LEAF line expensive so an entire collection of clothing designed specifically to be sold through high end men’s stores send some folks howling. That is, unless you can afford it. You can see the difference in quality. The deal is, you have to find it to be able to see for yourself.

The are a lot of cool items in the Veilance line but one thing really stuck out for me that we are missing on the LEAF side; a Merino sweater like the Graph. Available in Black, Boron Grey (shown above) and Ordesa Green (shown below), the Graph combines all of the goodness of a Merino garment with TerraTex nylon stretch panels along the yoke and down the arms for abrasion resistance.
