New OPTIFADE Cover Camouflage from SITKA for Early Season Greenery
Many hunting seasons around the US are in full swing. From whitetail deer to early elk, and even some people down south are chasing wild hogs. The one thing that many of us stomping through the fields and forests have in common is that our environment is very green right now. It’s not yet cold enough where the colors are changing in the trees or our native flora yet. Many of our ol’ standby camo patterns aren’t suited for a heavy green environment. With that in mind, SITKA has gone about creating a camouflage pattern specifically for those times in the OPTIFADE Cover camo colorway.

What’s the Secret Sauce in OPTIFADE Cover?
SITKA went back into the lab to work along specialists who study and better understand the eyesight of ungulates (hoofed mammals). Ungulates are the bulk of what hunters are simply hunting – whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, elk, etc – and knowing how their eyes perceive colors, camo, and other elements can inform us on how to craft a better camouflage to hide from them. With all of those thoughts in mind, SITKA produced OPTIFADE Cover.
It wasn’t enough to simply understand the game we are pursuing, SITKA also sought out to produce a richer and deeper green camouflage for those early season hunts. They stated that the new OPTIFADE Cover “provides exceptional concealment during the early season when dense tree cover is prevalent, helping hunters stay unseen in the woods… OPTIFADE Cover offers year-round effectiveness, ensuring hunters remain hidden through all seasons in its diverse and often thick vegetation.”

SITKA is extremely excited to bring this new camo to market, and just in time for a lot of these early season, fall hunts. They had these words to share about their new camo pattern:

Developed in collaboration with top wildlife researchers from the University of Georgia Deer Research Lab, this cutting-edge camo pattern sets a new standard for concealment in greener seasons.
