KommandoStore – Gorka K2 Mountain Suit: Red Dawn Edition
In true KommandoStore tradition, they’ve taken the classic Russian Gorka K2 Mountain Suit and reproduced it in the Soviet-style camouflage pattern created for the movie “Red Dawn”.
While this looks like a Gorka, it’s more. KommadoStore has made some changes to the design to improve its performance. For example, they’ve added an extra large diamond shape gusset that goes down to the knee, and lowered the rise to sit comfortably below the navel for a contemporary, high-mobility fit.
They’ve also reworked the seam structure and size of the hood to accommodate a full range of motion so it moves with the head. Additionally, they use a NYCO ripstop fabric with DWR coating rather than the waxed cotton of the original.
As for the camo pattern, well that was created specifically for the movie back on the 80s based on photographs of the KLMK pattern. It was never an actual issue pattern but it has gained a following of its own along with the movie.
