Milspec MULTICAM® Ball Cap — NIR Compliant / MIL-DTL-44436B
Not all headwear is created equal. Built from certified Milspec MULTICAM® 50/50 NYCO Ripstop — the same fabric standard used in operational kit, not fashion gear. It works on the range, in the field, and it won't let you down under NV at night.
✕ A Fashion Cap Marks You As The New Guy
A high-street "camo" cap is the wrong pattern, the wrong fabric, and glows under night vision because the dyes were never NIR-corrected — so it fades in a season and gives you away in the dark. This is cut from genuine MIL-DTL-44436B 50/50 NYCO ripstop with correct IR reflectance: it reads right by day and stays dark under an NVD.
◈ MIL-DTL-44436B Certified Fabric
Manufactured using genuine MULTICAM® 50/50 Nylon/Cotton Ripstop — the same pattern developed by Crye Precision and fielded by militaries worldwide. NIR-compliant fabric ensures the dyes maintain correct infrared reflectance characteristics, preserving camouflage effectiveness when viewed through night-vision devices.
Genuine pattern. Genuine performance.

Better kit, priced fairly
As our kit has got better, our prices have moved with it. We still come in under most of the market for the same quality, and every Strider design is specced and tested by us before it goes on sale.
Orders ship from New Zealand, so they reach Kiwi customers faster and cheaper than kit ordered from offshore.
