What is Quality Shooting Clothing?

Shooting clothing isn’t just about fashion – it’s an investment in experience and technology. Laksen is a Danish company that has been producing first class shooting apparel for over 30 years. The product range is developed in close co-operation with experienced professional hunters as well as sportsmen from various parts of the world.

Comfort, function and quality are key elements in the line up of products. In order to achieve the optimum results, new materials are been tested to extremes constantly and production methods to combine them into practical products from traditional Scottish tweeds to high specification technical underwear and footwear.

As one of the first producers of hunting clothing in Europe, Laksen developed their first line of models with Gore-tex back in the beginning of the 1980’s. For more than 25 years we have been producing quality clothes incorporating the world renowned Gore-tex membrane. Laksen was the first manufacturer to combine Scottish tweed with modern technology. Only ten years ago, Laksen combined the high-tech gore-tex membrane with tweed in the form of a drop-liner. Even today only genuine Scottish sporting tweed from Thirie Estates, woven in Hawick Scotland are used.

Today Gore-tex manufactures a range of different products, all designed to keep the wearer warm, dry and comfortable regardless of the prevailing climatic conditions. The wind stopper followed the Gore-tex membrane. This material is 100% windproof while being extremely breathable. Ideal for the active hunter as the material, in addition to being windproof and breathable is lightweight and noiseless.

After more than 30 years on the market, Gore-tex remains state of the art and in our ongoing endeavors to provide hunters around the globe with optimum comfort, functionality and quality, Laksen are proud to be partners with the worlds leading manufacturer in this field.

Another membrane used by Laksen is CTX. The letters translate to comfort, technology and extreme. This membrane was developed using the most advanced technologies available. The membrane is completely watertight while still allowing the body to breath. In addition to being completely watertight and windproof, the CTX membrane is extremely silent, this is particularly important when stalking. The technical properties of the membrane match the highly changing conditions that apply when the hunter is either physically active or when sitting motionless in wait for his quarry.
