But if you're reading this because you already get what the fuss is about and want to learn more about what this partnership means for you, here's the dirt.

WhAT is Kryptek?

Kryptek offers a technical hunting clothing line that's functional, durable, reliable, and doesn't break the bank. Essentially, they took what they learned in the most hostile combat environments and combined that knowledge with proven tactical gear concepts. Then, they took it a step further, by testing it with top military professionals and hunters to make sure it could perform well in all potential backcountry scenarios.

Kryptek’s designs incorporate micro and macro layering technology, inspired by artillery camouflage netting. This technology creates a 3D appearance on a 2D surface — and near-invisibility. In tests using laser-retinal tracking, subjects took longer to locate Kryptek than any other camo on the market. And it's only going to get better from there: Constant improvement and feedback are always incorporated into future designs.

why DID WE PARTNER WITH KRYPTEK?

You really gotta ask? Bluestorm was born of a long family history — over 85 years of creating life-saving personal flotation devices. We're dedicated to saving lives and ensuring the best time possible on land and water, and Kryptek is kind of like a brother from another mother.

For us, saving lives and ensuring the best time possible on land and water is not just why we're here. It's why we keep pushing ourselves forward. And when you meet another team like that, you know you'll create something incredible together. How could we not say yes?
