Hello everyone

One question, is there someone who would have heard of clothing shot Anschütz Evotop. They look not bad but is it the right equipment. I do not know. I know the best is Kurt Thune, but I look at the alternative.

The price is good compared to Kurt Thune which can cost double the Evotop. But is it worth it?

Thank you folks

The Anschutz Evotop is made by Hitex. You can buy identical jacket branded either Hitex or Anschutz

Hitex Evotop is a very very good jacket I have just changed to one few months ago. Cost a small fortune but worth every penny. Make sure you are measured up by some one that really knows what they are doing. I used Ten Point Nine in the UK (Pippa) she is always changing jackets for people that have been poorly measured up for there jacket. KT are very good but for me Hitex Evotop just has the edge. There is no point buying a top of the range jacket like this unless it is custom made.
It's up to you at the end of the day but a jacket half the price of an Evotop will get you going and be more than good enough for several years.

I think that currently in the UK many of the National Squad level shooters (and a lot of others too) are using Pippa at 10.9 for tailoring. She is now the UK distributor for Hitex and I suspect that we will see a lot of shooters here opt for the Hitex in the future as it will mean that they get the full service from the start. I have had jackets from both Sauer and KT and the Hitex is the equal of both of these in terms of quality and technical innovation. Unlike the western european based manufacturers Hitex are made in what is still a relatively cheap part of the world to do business, but this doesn't always mean lower quality. I know my daughters next jacket/trousers will be coming from this source.
