Billed as a “as a lightweight, feature filled shirt for today’s Barrel Chested Freedom Fighter” they’re not kidding. Not only is it made from CoolMax® fabric, they rely on flat seam stitching and a tagless design to eliminate the potential for “hot spots”. 215 Gear has also added a 4″ x 4″ loop Velcro for IFF and unit patches. Finally, they’ve given this shirt a generous cut so make sure you order one size smaller if you are looking for a more snug fit.
For those of you who hadn’t gotten the word, Kitanica is now offering their cool Shirt 2.A in Khaki as well as Black and they are in stock now.
Featuring angled chest pockets and a raglan sleeves, there are two inset bicep pockets with zipper closures. Available in sizes Small – XXLarge, it comes with a free Kitanica patch.
I’d seen the Spectre Cap from Italy’s SOD Gear online but after picking one up at SHOT Show I can tell you that photos just don’t do it justice. It’s a true fatigue cap. Comfortable, floppy, and designed specifically for field wear. In fact it has a lot in common with their Boonie Hat which is the Rolls Royce of Boonies. For example, when you take a look at the brim you can see that it is a modified section of a full Boonie brim. It also incorporates the terry sweatband and vent system from the SOD Boonie.
Naturally, it features plenty of Velcro to accept ID and other accoutrements. Additionally, the cap comes in two sizes with micro adjustments available via a strap at the rear. It also has a loop so you can hang it or attach it to your gear. Finally, it is available in a plethora of colors including HCS (the photo below), Black, Tan, Blue, MultiCam, Vegetato, Desertico CB62 as well as PenCott Badlands, Greenzone and Sandstorm.
I have one in Street Brown which a very dark brown that fades into a chocolate brown. It’s a very comfortable cap that makes me think of a Boonie Hat who was unhappy with its body image so it got some plastic surgery to make it more like a Patrol Cap. Then it added an adjuster so it would be like an American ballcap. Seriously, it’s a cool hat and oh so comfy. Did I say it was comfy?

Viper Headwear was started by a US Army SF vet. Their new “Snake Eater” is a fitted cap for tactical operators constructed from genuine Crye Precision Multicam® 50/50 Nylon/Cotton Cordura® material. Caps can be ordered with or without the 2″ x 3.5″ Velcro® loop material on the front of the cap, 1.5″ x 1.5″ loop on top, and 1″ x 4″ or 1″ x 6″ Velcro® loop material on the back for shorter 4-inch or standard 6-inch nametapes.
For added comfort when wearing communications headsets, this cap does not include the button on top and it features an unstructured, lower crown.

This Fall, Massif is launching a new fashion clothing line. We’ve told you about their new non-FR, outdoor/tactical line but this is something altogether different. Once again, it’s non-FR but his time the approach is “Tailored clothing made from performance fabrics”. Consider it a lifestyle brand for today’s “urban warrior”.
It’s a great effort to diversify their offerings from very military centric FR combat clothing to outdoor/tactical and now high end urban wear. You can see that the new Massif Collection draws influence from what they know best and you will see some of the same fabric stories between the two new lines.
