It was the second time SOD Gear exhibited their gear and apparel at IWA in Nuremberg. Usually the company from Empoli/Italy exhibits all of their colour options and camouflage patterns available, but this year they stuck to their solid color HCS (hybrid-coyote-sage), some Italian patterns and Multicam ,plus the German Flecktarn. As a fan, I […]
The reason I stumbled upon the Ukrainian company UTactic was that I was doing some recce for my friends from Perunika. I was genuinely impressed by what I found. Although some of the designs looked familiar, the gear of UTactic is build with high quality materials (Cordura, Duraflex, ykk etc) and shows exquisit quality of […]
Leo Köhler is well known for their quality of manufacture when it comes to their uniforms and apparel. Although it is not a company that surprises the market every year with new line-ups and designs, they did have something new to show during this years IWA. Besides some new jackets and pants, they were also […]
The guys of UF PRO had a busy year and their booth at IWA 2018 was just as busy. Everytime when I see pictures from military or police operations and maneuvres in Europe, I see their pants. So many units are using their clothes that it really blows my mind. At the show they showcased […]
It has been a while since I published a comparative review on camouflage patterns. Since it is Winter – or better said – since winter is almost over, I had another opportunity to make use of the many camo uniforms given to me by Helikon-Tex. Some of you might remember, that I have already written […]

Every year Vienna is the stage for all kinds military, be it the Nationalguard, the Pioneers, the Tank divisions and our Airbourne Community together with the Special Forces. Here you will find some random snapshots I took […]
Some time has passed since my last camouflage comparison and to be honest, I was quite surprised by the attention my last fieldtest attracted. The article was a little bit provoking to be honest, but apparently that was what started a very fruitful exchange on various platforms. One thing let to another and the team […]
In September I published a small field test on the performance of SloCam in the European forest environment. In this particular previous review I also mentioned I had taken some pictures with uniform sets in Multicam and PenCott Greenzone as well. In the following review I want to present this mentioned material as well as […]
It feels silly to write about the application of certain camouflage patterns in winter time when it has nearly 20°C outside and spring is in full blossom. But here I am, working off my material, that has been piling up in the recent months. In the end it is winter somewhere on this planet in […]
