Not that the NY Times misses much by a decade or so-but we were like, where have you been...maybe not west of the Hudson...when the print read published a bit on the fashion style of weapons hiding attire...specifically mentioning Woolrich, as if it was the latest thing. (Story).

Anyone who has attended OR...or certainly the more than packed SHOT Show (Shooting, Hunting, Outdoor) in Las Vegas...would read this and say old news.

However, get past the hyperbole...one such apparel maker, Kakadu Traders, -named after of northern Aussie locale, btw---has been churning out durable, Outback tough, and rather stylishly rugged apparel and haulers for years-at value prices, we think, considering the items are worthy of any high-end boutique.

 Said retailers...discovering (finally) --- heritage brands-that consumers want.

For Fall 2012...Kakadu Gun Worn ...aka "...its whats on the inside that counts..." showed several traditional but fitted well...men's tops and bottoms we thought make great travel pieces...with loads of pockets, quality trims and hardware...and easy care fabrics that endure the test of time.
