IWA 2018: The chameleon is upgrading

At the Helikon-Tex booth, a large part of the new product range could be admired. Four new backpacks are coming, along with much more to look forward to. In addition to the new products, the color palette of existing products is being expanded. The chameleon is leveling up!Pictured are the three new backpacks from the Urban Line, from left to right: Groundhog Pack, EDC Backpack, and EDC Backpack Lite with less MOLLE and made from lighter NYLON. All very well thought out with many useful details.

From the Outback Line is the fourth backpack, the Summit Backpack, which at 44l volume weighs just ~1.3 kg and has some beautifully designed features.

Here a laptop case, the Chest Pack Numbat, and the EDC Side bag. All kept in a beautiful gray. Also note the belts hanging sideways with "concealed carry" options. The Numbat Chest Pack is a civilian chestrig, very detailed and well thought out. Seen here on the man or mannequin in Coyote Brown. Also new on the mannequin is the Woodsman Anorak. Both were designed by Survivaltech.pl.

In the background, on the second mannequin, you see the Urban Tactical Hoodie, which was introduced last year but is now expected to hit stores in the coming weeks and received very positive feedback at the fair.

There are also two more EDC belts, a two-point gun strap, and a classic gun bag as new additions. Helikon-Tex has responded to your feedback, so the rifle bag will also be lockable.

This year, the first uniforms in Pencott Wildwood will also be available. Pictured is the color difference between the pants in Wildwood and the gaiters in Greenzone. Both harmonize well together. Gear in Wildwood should be available towards the end of this year or early next year.

No obvious innovation but still noteworthy: Helikon-Tex now officially uses licensed Multicam for their products. Detailed reviews of the new Helikon-Tex products will be available here throughout the year.
