I'm always looking for ways to improve upon existing materials being used for concealment purposes. I've always been big on natural fibers, but this stuff has definately helped open my mind to the possibility of synthetics.

I can't give specifics on this yet, but I've been collaborating with hide member, Fighthard, on this and so far, the results have been very positive.

I will say that the fibers are very durable and are way lighter than traditional jute strands. They are water and fire resistant as well. This stuff makes no mess when tying and leaves no stragglers behind on stalks. It also has a clinging quality that gives it a unique texture effect and gives it the ability to hold vegetation and dead leaves with minimal effort.

If you are going to be at SHOT and want to see it up close, come see me at the US Tactical Supply booth. I'll be there with the rest of the Tactical Concealment crew.

See ya at SHOT,
Zac

Wow, I thought I'd heard that synthetics didn't have any loft to them, but that looks great.
 
Re: New Test Product - Synthetic Ghillie Fibers

That does look great. And I just ordered 8 lbs of natural jute from tactical concealment too. oh well...

Re: New Test Product - Synthetic Ghillie Fibers

Hmm, is that stuff avaliable to buy in bulk? Im interested.
 
Re: New Test Product - Synthetic Ghillie Fibers

Looks better than most would have thought. Strange silly-string appearance from the rear though.
 
Re: New Test Product - Synthetic Ghillie Fibers

GZ, very nice. I've been wondering about synthetics, whether they resist matting when wet, brush snagging, and don't weigh a ton when wet. Asking a lot, to be sure.

Hey I know that guy, lives up the street from me, damn he looks different thru a scope! lol
 
Re: New Test Product - Synthetic Ghillie Fibers

Thanks guys!!

Feedback for this stuff was very positive at SHOT!! Looks like we'll be able to make this public in the near future!

I'll provide more info on here once we are ready to get it rolling out for public sales.
