Multicam
For those obsessed with Multicam, and let’s face it, everybody you really want to know is, the Sigurd shirts are a good addition to one’s Multicam wardrobe. As you may recall from my Christmas gift guide last year, the Sigurd shirts from 5.11 are excellent for use in hot weather. They block the sun, keep you cool, and don’t get stinky. Now they are available in Multicam!
Fabric Variety
These Multicam wonders are made from a stretchy fabric (78% nylon/ 22% elastane mesh) with something called Cryo-Tac™ properties. Key features of the fabric are its effective moisture-wicking and anti-odor properties. I’ve worn the Ranger green version kayaking in the hot sun, and it absolutely performed; I was cool and fresh all day long despite the heat and intense exercise. The little holes in the fabric mean there’s no SPF rating, but Sigurd shirts certainly afford decent sun protection in my personal experience.
Athletic Cut
The Sigurd has an athletic cut with flat seams, and it is so light it seems like it’s not there. Shoulder loop patches give you the option of a morale patch. These shirts are great for warm-weather activities that require camouflage, range of motion, or an advanced coolness factor. Multicam Sigurd shirts are available now from 5.11 Tactical in XS-4XL in long sleeve ($105) or short sleeve ($100).

$105 for a shirt sounds like a stupid test to me. I’m not that dumb. Nice shirt though.
