And with that statement, you've just convinced me that I need to sell some of my 'surplus' armour, and get one of these.

Lord knows I need some "Air Kaedas" to help this fat man run and jump. Hop and Pop. Sneak and Peek. Shoot and Loot.

well, i went to the ABT skirm and pulphiser showed up in his kruck gear.

it was ill fitted. looked about 1 size too wide for him and still sat short so that his belly and kidneys hung out.

in looking in other pics posted in this thread the other person wearing this gear is also ill fitted.

look at the neck line on that ciras....it hangs almost mid solar plexus, you tell me how a trauma pad is going to protect your thorax when ther is a huge GAPING opening around your neckline like that. heart, lungs...all unprotected with that rig up that is posted.

another thing that i do not like about this gear is the "prison stripes" look. the webbing doesnt event attempt to come close to matching the main body of the vest itself....giving it a two tone stripped look. horizontal stripes at that.



overall from what i have seen first hand , i stand by my original opinions of this brand.


i hope you reconsider alex, fat people look horrible in horizontal stripes ( and you are a big boy!). your money would be better spent elsewhere.



this is the only kruck i have seen that looks remotley kewl and is correctly fitted, and the webbing is a much closer color match. a over all more "finished" look from kruck.

nice look geshutz.

Krukspec gear is pretty unique in it's look, I am liking that, too bad I pretty much got out of the "modernish" looking gear.
Now, if Krukspec has plans to make something like a rifleman's system, or a belt and suspenders based system, I may have to look into it!
I like the fact that the colors of the base material and PALs do not match perfectly, it gives a "brand recognition" kind of look to it and really is kind of sharp looking. I wouldn't mind seeing some companies use opposing colors from the common camo patterns for their gear, so PALs was coyote and the body a OD or even earth brown; it would give the body more color contrast/break-up, regardless of straight lines or not.
Have you guys thought about AUSCAM or any of the other camo schemes that are becoming popular? Just an idea since they typically manifest and then peek in popularity for the "fashionable" airsofter, so starting a new scheme when you see them gaining in popularity can help in marketing, and the colors would probably work in some areas of the Philipinnes, so you could potentially test market them locally as a start.
I like it, it is cool to see companies like AZR and Krukspec coming into the market, it really shows growth in the industry and illustrates trends in the market.
Keep it up!
