5.11 Tactical has released their Taclite Anorak. They've leveraged modern materials and technology to improve what is probably the greatest pieces of traditional snivel kit since freezing assed legionnaires first started wearing paenula while operating operationally out in the cold. Yes, we like anoraks. Anyway, at first glance this looks to be one of the more legitimately covert/discreet outer garments currently made by any of the companies making allegedly covert/discreet outer garments. Yes, it has the logo emblazoned on the right side and there's hook and loop on the sleeve, but 5.11 gear is becoming so ubiquitous that isn't nearly the tell it once was.

Currently available in Brown, Stone and Tundra colors, the TacLite Anorak retails for $149.99. It has a water repellent exterior, a kangaroo pocket 3-panel hood, collar storm flaps and adjustable cuffs, in addition to document pockets and side vents.
