Hunters Element

Hunters Element spent a huge amount of time testing and designing prototypes before releasing their Bino Defender. They hunted for years with different bino protection systems, picking them apart and piecing them together until they finally produced what they feel to be the ultimate design.

They wanted their system to be slim-lined for less bulk while crawling through the scrub and the important ability to see your foot placement in dodgy terrain. The bino defender exploits a magnet release for the fastest and quietest possible entry, an easy access rain cover for additional protection in turbulent weather and 4 pockets for further essentials.

Features:
• Fits most 10x42 roof prism binos or smaller
• Air-flow foam for maximum breathability and minimum bulk
• Removable, adjustable, ergonomic, elasticated harness
• No-look puller with quiet but strong magnetic closure
• 4 pockets for wind checker, drop charts, etc
• Quality durable YKK® buckles
• Hidden elasticated rain cover
• Ultra-slim profile for cleaner foot placement.

The Classic™ Series knives are hand crafted using the finest materials, fittings, and workmanship. Natural maple burl wood handles, highly polished brass bolsters, and premium quality 5cr15 stainless steel blades that hold an edge deer after deer. Rugged and durable enough for all skinning and dressing jobs, as well as everyday use.

5cr15 alloy was selected for the blades, due to its specific chemical makeup, with a similar hardness to 440a but with less chromium and carbon. Unlike other common stainless steels, 5cr15 alloy has a percentage of vanadium added to increase tensile strength and impact strength. Our knives are easily sharpened in the field. These characteristics have been selected for hunter's demands worldwide, and the designs have proven successful in New Zealand. All Classic™ Series knives also come with a lifetime warranty.

The fixed Classic™ Series knife handles are constructed from a screwed design with a full tang, highly polished brass bolster and blade, with a sharp fine edge. Comes complete with a durable full grain leather sheath.

The Hunters Element Spur Shorts are their premium technical hunting shorts. They have been designed to be durable, light, and practical. This light nature is combined with clever design to maximise heat reduction in the hotter months. The three key fabrics used in the body-mapped design work together for ultimate performance. 

First, Ultra-durable 4-way stretch HYDRAFUSE™ SCRAPEarmor™ fabric is placed on the backside for high abrasion resistance. 

Next, Lightweight, breathable, quiet and versatile 4-way stretch HYDRAFUSE™ TOUGHSTRETCH™ fabric is placed on the main body for fast wicking and breathability. 

Finally, tactically placed air-mesh panels in the back of the waist and upper thighs force fresh air to pass over your hot areas as you move, billowing up from the bottom to the top of the shorts.

These are RPET fabrics, made from 100% recycled polyethylene terephthalate (Plastic Bottles). This is just as durable as virgin fabric but saves old plastic from ending up in landfill.

The clever design means the Hunters Element Spur Shorts feel amazing in the field and the convenience of multiple streamlined pockets means they will become an essential bit of kit for any hunt. 

Features:

• UPF 30+
• Body-mapped design: Multiple fabrics are body-mapped offering incredible performance and comfort in the field. Maximising heat ventilation and moisture-wicking in extreme heat, 4-way stretch, odour control and durability in abrasion zones.

• Ultra-durable 4-way stretch HYDRAFUSE™ SCRAPEarmor™ fabric placed on the knees, seat, and lower legs for high abrasion resistance

• Air Mesh Vents: Tactically placed air-mesh panels in the back of the waist and upper thighs force fresh air to pass over your hot areas as you move, billowing up from the bottom to the top of the shorts.
• Rapid cooling: Our ultralight bamboo charcoal infused honeycomb fabric is utilised on the upper for rapid moisture wicking and odour control. When exposed to the slightest breeze the fabric dries rapidly, creating a cooling effect on the skin.

The CORE+ base layer is a thick, extra warm base for cold conditions. The thermal properties retain the bodies core heat at the highest level in icy conditions and allow sweat to be wicked away quickly from the skin at a rapid rate. The compression weave is designed to cling tight to the body to help with muscle fatigue and rapid wicking.

The body-mapped design has been athletically shaped, so the high wicking fabric can sit tight to the body in order to absorb and disperse as much sweat as possible, all the while allowing maximum movement in the high stretch areas. The warm nature and fast sweat distribution properties mean that the Core+ is a perfect base layer under warm outers in cold climates as well as a standalone layer in the mild parts of the day.

The CORE+ should be used in temperatures ranging from -5C to 10C for maximum performance. For warmer conditions, the CORE range is recommended.

The hood and integrated face veil can be used not only to shield from the sun but also to provide a stealthier approach for close quarters stalking.
