DSEi – DEFCON 5

Tuesday, September 10th, 2013

I was very pleased to run across DEFCON 5, an Italian tactical gear producer. I had a great talk with Director Salvatore Marra. I did not know that they have US distribution via DEFCON 5 USA.

He showed me a new Sniper Suit developed in conjunction with French SOF.

This new suit integrates a variety of features including an underarm mesh ventilation system.

The adjustable hood can be stowed and incorporates tabs (as does the entire uniform) to attach scrim and other camouflage to transform the suit into a ghillie.

As you can see, they’ve also added a forearm information holder.

There are integrated Cordura knee pads and elbow pads as well as pockets galore which utilize the Canadian-style slotted buttons.

As you can see, the skirt of the smock features PALS webbing and will accept pouches.

Finally, this garment is made in the Multiland pattern.
