Under Armour is introducing an AR 670-1 compliant boot called the NFP. Although it’s not Berry compliant, it does combines rough out cow leather with 1000D Cordura upper. There’s also a padded area in the ankle for comfort and medial drainage ports. They finish the No Feel Pain with a dual denisty PU midsole.
Coyote, Black and Sage.
The level A9E (E=Equatorial) is Beyond’s Hot Wet uniform. Made from the USSOCOM-validated jungle fabric from Burlington, Beyond has kept the design simple, with a few specialized features.
For example, the Jungle Blouse has a mesh lined, rear vented yoke.
One feature that I haven’t seen in a jungle uniform before is the mesh underwear liner. It’s much like you’ll find in swimwear. There are also mesh gaiters sewn into the legs of the pants.
Here’s a sneak peek of two new colors for the very popular Go Pack from LBT Inc. Instead of a 3-Day size, it’s really more of a day-and-a-half size which is perfect as a Go Bag. There are external mesh and zippered pockets in addition to the main zippered compartment. Additionally, the shoulder straps are the same reinforced, bartacked, padded from LBT you are used to.
Watch for awesome pricing during the initial launch.
The Patrol Carrier (part number 12483-YP) is a fully RF welded, gear swallowing 90liter Drybags, designed to carry a full loaded patrol pack.
It has a 46″ YKK dry suit zipper to facilitate gear access, external inflation tube, compression straps and a low profile shoulder strap system. It is a component of the SEAL and SWCC 5-bag kits produced by Watershed Drybags.
Developed for testing in extreme cold weather, this modified version of NEMO’s Award winning Moki mountaineering tent, has no floor in order to save weight and avoid condensation issues associated with flooring in that environemnt. However, it’s cool to see MultiCam Alpine used for a tent.
This shelter is not available for purchase. Lessons learned will be integrated into future NEMO products.
On the heels of commercial success of the Helix family of lanterns, Princenton Tec is introducing a subdued version in OD/Coyote as well as Black/Grey.
The Helix lanterns feature collapsible globes and come with red and white light settings, and an output of 250 lumens, with the exception of the Backcountry, which outputs 150 lumens. Run time is 22-40 hours, depending on the model.
Can you believe this lantern is only $34.95 retail (3x AAA, rechargable also available)?
MARBOCk told me that three years of work have paid off. Tarsier Eclipse is NAVAIR approved and will be added to the NATOPS!
For those of you unfamiliar with Tarsier Eclipse, it’s an add-on, easily adjustable iris for the objective lens of night vision devices which facilitates quick focus. With a twist of the adjuster, the iris opens and closes (as you can see above) in order to fine tune the focus for up close work. It also works as a sacrificial lens in order to prevent lens damage.
