DESERT REFRESH
TRUCKER CAP
A classic trucker cap, two-thirds mesh for sun protection and
maximal airow. The front panel is in 6-Color Desert, and the
typography riffs on American black soda branding — apop-cul-
ture nod.
ANORAK TRACER JACKET
Until now the Anorak Tracer jacket came mostly in solid
colors, bicolors and two camos — wz.93 and Duck Hunter —
and now there's aDesert 6-Color version. The Anorak Tracer is
based on the Anorak Woodsman (also from Helikon-Tex) but
is tuned more for tactical use. They dropped the softshell back
panel — the whole Tracer is made from asingle fabric type,
and it packs more pockets (shoulder pockets included) plus
awider range of adjustment and t options.
CHINOOK
A lightweight membrane jacket for operators in
the eld who need a simple rain shell. It has
four pockets (two front, two on the shoulders),
Velcro panels for patches and waist and hem
adjusters. Pit zips are tted under the arms, the
main zipper is two-way and secured at the bot-
tom with a snap, and cuffs are adjustable with
Velcro tabs.
The shell uses a 2.5L laminate for waterproof-
ing and effective moisture management (vapor
transmission). With no lining, the jacket is light
and packs small.
Chinook's waterproof rating is 20,000 mm H₂O
and its breathability is 20,000 g/m2/24h.
All seams are taped and zippers are protected
by storm aps.
The jacket is nished with a PFC-free DWR
hydrophobic coating.
