Durabo is a Polish company that specializes in work and casual wear with military design cues like this Super 65 Field Jacket they launched awhile back. They also use Cordura fabrics in their clothing.
At IWA they gave is a sneak peek of their upcoming Combat Uniform.
It’s an interesting design with more of a field or Recce-style jacket than a combat shirt. As you can see, they anticipate use of Crye Precision knee pads.
Lowa has been working on updating several boots in the Task Force line including the ever popular Zephyr.
While maintaining the the overall look of the boot, they’ve updated the materials and they are now fully certified to CE EN ISO 20347:2012 standard. The lacing system now features a locking hook and there’s a lace storage pocket at the top of the tongue. They’ve also enlarged the loop at the rear of the heel.
Additionally, the X-TRAC military outsole is new and incorporates a fast rope arch.
One interesting design change is that they’ve moved the seam at the side of the toe further back so that it won’t separate over time due to flexing. You can the new seam location on the Mk2 at the left compared to the original construction of the Zephyr at the right.
in this layout you can see the update extends to low, mid, and hi versions of the Zephyr MK2, in all colors as well.
Sweden’s Spuhr AB displayed their new Spuhr Ideal Chassis System, referred to as “6” in the CZ Group booth as CZ owns a minority share of the company.
According to Spuhr it’s machined from aircraft aluminum, with the sole synthetic parts being the rubberized pistol grip, cheek piece, and a Limbsaver Airtech recoil pad.
It also features a patented, quick-adjustable Length of Pull (LOP) with presets so that the user can tailor his maximum and minimum LOP.
Additionally, there is an Arca Swiss rail integrated into the fore end. It will also accept Spuhr Interface accessories.

This is a sneak peek of Helikon-Tex‘s upcoming take on the Claymore Bag.
It’s a nice design with a carry strap and top carry handle. The front flap covers two external pockets with elasticized tops to keep your gear inside. At the rear is a zippered pocket.
Right now it’s up in the air whether that’ll make it in Tigerstripe so let’s let them know it will be worth their while.
So far GLOCK has delivered around 80% of the almost 75,000 Pistolet Semi-Automatique examples of the new which the French military selected in 2019 to replace their aging MAC 50 and MAS G1 9mm NATO pistols.
At IWA they showed us what the package looks like.
As you can see the system consists of a G17 with three extra magazines, an extra upper with mounted Aimpoint ACRO RDS, and B&T suppressor.
The French Army, Navy and Air Force are included in the contract along with some other French agencies.
The Nürnberg Messe hasn’t hosted an IWA Outdoor Classics since 2019. It’s nice to catch up with old friends and make new acquaintances but unfortunately many companies and attendees didn’t make it this year.
Halls which in previous years had been packed with stands and visitors alike sat partially empty like you see here, while others still were outright closed.
Companies which are exhibiting have some new stuff which I’ll share over the next few days.
Despite lower attendance to this civilian oriented show, business looks to be booming, at least for the brands in the soldier systems sector. I am hearing reports that PPE is in high demand due to the conflict in Ukraine. Apparently, there are no helmets, armor/carriers, and tourniquets to be had in Europe right now.
