eta... I see you mean their forum on here. Not enough traffic/interest to justify several thousand $$$ a month? |

While I commend them for trying to change their image, they really should've started by changing their name-- "Pantac" has long been associated with airsoft and I think that really hurt them in the end.

I was thinking about them a few days ago, they used to be really active in this forum when they were trying to fix their image.

I agree with you. We gave them some good suggestions on how to change their image. Seems like their Chinese parent company wasn't willing to listen. And their logo.

I knew that would happen. I'm not sure what happened, but someone took over Wallace's spot and he wasn't very active here. I did see Wallace post the other day in another section here. |

Design was the main issue Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile Yep...Brad's telling it straight. I sent them a very nice, professional presentation with pictures and suggestions on not only how to improve some of their designs, but also pointed out the areas they were doing good at. All I got back was a response along the lines of "I must not know what actual Cordura feels or looks like..." after that, they broke contact with me via email and here in the forum. It's a shame, because the stitching was pretty darn good, and while some of their designs needed help from people that actually have used gear in the real world (that's a stab at their Tacticall Mall Ninjas featured in their catalog), it was all pretty minor stuff considering the price point they were trying to hit. Wallace seemed to want to change the image and quality of Pantac...I guess he got overruled, somehow. That, or he got severely butthurt.... |

I'm sure it's nothing more than Pantac USA making a business decision on where to spend their marketing money. I wouldn't read more into it than that.

Also never received a straight answer where they get their multicam webbing. |

In case they're watching, the pictures in their catalog suck, the lighting is wrong, colors and textures do not present well and the is a huge lacking of high detail shots on things like stitching and construction. My son has TPC in Coyote and it is well put together, the fabric, while not light, is a little lighter than I nut I like it enough to purchase one if I don't find something I like better first. |

Some call it witchcrafting. It is good to T&E stuff though the science behind using a garden hose to create mud in the back yard to ones apartment complex is in high demand. |

I got one during their 'group buy' for their initial large run.
It's ok. Nothing I'd buy again; it's somewhere between a windbreaker and a regular soft shell. The colors aren't even close to the descriptions and the pocket in the collar that holds the roll out hood is massively big and makes the overall lightweight jacket a pain in the ass to wear - I literally want to just cut it off. The material wears like a windbreaker and is loud as hell. Besides that, the sizing was made for something like asian kids that were never supposed to grow over 5'4 and never weigh more than 120lbs. |
