SHOT Show 18 – Viktos

Tuesday, January 30th, 2018

Viktos is a new clothing brand which has one foot planted in the off road world and the other in shooting sports. It’s a great combination. I had seen it on Instagram for several months and my friend Dan Brokos has been wearing their stuff, but SHOT Show was my first chance to check it out in person. I like what I see. Although Viktos offers a full line, which even includes boot and gloves, I’m going to present you with two pants and one short.

Gunfighter Denim Jeans

This articulated fit is made from Cordura stretch denim and features a Cordura crotch, padded waistband with hidden pocket, oversize beltloops, Hipshoot magazine pockets, and Cashout pistol magazine coin pocket.

Khaktical Pants

The name is a portmanteau of Khaki and Tactical. They are made from a NYCO blend, with gussetted crotch, padded waistband with hidden pocket, oversize beltloops, Hipshoot magazine pockets, zippered thigh pockets, and integrated web belt. Offered in Greyman, Fieldcraft (pictured), Nightfall and Spartan.

EDC Shorts

Essentially, this is the short version of the Khaktical Pants. Same features.
