Viktos AlphaDawn

The Viktos AlphaDawn is a hooded, zip-up jacket that, thanks to its highly compressible, ripstop polyester construction, can function equally well on its own or as a middle layer when the temperatures dip.

Interior insulation provides warmth in temperatures as low as 10° F, while a water-resistant exterior coating helps keep the elements at bay. The jacket also features a Gunvent zipper on each side, allowing for quick access to your concealed-carry firearm.

MSRP is $165 for the zip-up Viktos AlphaDawn. For more information, please visit viktos.com.
