BLOG: QILO x West Side Gun Club - Oak Leaf Collection (Drops 11/22)

Michael Stein

QILO x WEST SIDE GUN CLUB

Our first-ever collaboration with West Side Gun Club features a whole suite of soft goods in the rare & niche Oak Leaf Camo (Eichenlaub).

Kicking off this collection is our All-New & Improved Gen 3.1 Retro Windbreaker.

Just like the recent Gen. III, these are made in USA with 70D nylon DWR water resistant shell material & YKK Aquaguard zippers, as well as improved Velcro cuff placement & quality.

The biggest change in the 3.1 update is the inclusion of mesh-lined vents underneath the horizontal cross-body flap; resulting in much-improved breathability and temperature regulation.

Previously this flap served aesthetic purposes only (being retro style), but it is now a functionally active component of the overall design. Body lining material has also been improved to be less noisy, less “crunchy” and less stiff for an overall softer and quieter experience. Design features include a PVC rubber West Side “Palm Tree” logo patch on the front flap, “West Side” embroidered text logo on the back flap.

Also dropping on our site is the matching Prison Wallet constructed with 500D Cordura. Made in USA with the same design & features as our other Prison Wallets - this features a dual QILO / West Side PVC Logo Patch on the exterior.

IN-STORE EXCLUSIVES:

West Side Gun Club will be dropping their Blicky Bag in the same camo on their site & in-store.
