In previous camouflage comparisons I have focused mainly on the newest and/or dominant patterns available and those in use by “western” militaries. At the same time I was restricted to what was at hand. As you know, I got my hands on quite a lot of camouflage patterns in the previous months so I am […]
Introduction Recently I introduced the Tasmanian Tiger Tac Pack 45 to you guys in this review. I apologize I was not able to deliver on Part 2 sooner, but as always “life” got in my way. The delay had its merits though, since I was able to use the pack more extensively in the meantime. […]

After speaking with my friends at UF PRO, they were kind enough to field me a set of SloCam apparel. With that I was able to shoot some more pictures for you guys to give you an impression on how this camouflage pattern actually looks in the wild. This will only be a small part of a coming series of reviews I am now able to do.
