Our Opinion: The new version of the popular NRS Chinook. The vest has been slightly revised in small details, with no significant differences from the previous model. Slightly different pocket layout, but otherwise identical to the NRS Chinook OS. The vest pairs perfectly with the NRS Neko Knife or the NRS Neko Blunt Knife. The lighter alternative with fewer pockets is the NRS Clearwater.
