This is my second combat/rugby shirt from shekkin and I'm never let down on the quality it's always insane. Packaging was very nice in a thick Shekkin sealed bag. I usually get a size up just to be safe (6'4-210) so I got this in an XL, perfect fit.
Color Is pretty accurate to my EI AOR1 pouches.
Shirt material feels soft and like a nice quality T-shirt thought could be worn for long hours.
Wash instructions are on the T-shirt which is also a positive
These are actually really nice and spot on to the real deal. Color is accurate and my real Ferro zip panel connected no problem. 10/10
Very satisfied with the pants. Tried them out in the forest shortly after their arrival and they are very comfortable. Definitely recommended if you are into kimono-type patterns.
Had a pricey order, so added this for peace of mind. Nothing happened fortunately, but it's nice to stay safe on big orders.
I've previously installed Ferro's buckle kit on my other PC's cummerbund, and it took some elbow grease. Shekkin's repro of the buckle kit feel legit in a sense it takes the same amount of effort to install. The Tegris material feels strong like the real thing, so don't worry about bending and damaging it during installation... you can lay it flat after putting it in properly. Can't comment on the durability of the "Tubes" buckles yet, hopefully they'll last long like the real thing.
Just finished putting it on my second Slickster! It feels just like the real one I have on my other Slickster, definitely recommend this.
While I got the M-size, Shekkin having an option for a S-size is nice for smaller folk, because Ferro only has M-size and above.
bonne matière. si vous portez du M habituellement prenez du S si vous voulez quelque chose de Fit. Sinon le M vous fera un style un peu oversize.
I’ve been running the Roll 1 as my only IFAK for 12 months now and can say I’m 100% happy with the design and quality of the product. A must buy for anyone running a plate carrier as part of their kit
I’ve been using this belt for a about 6 months now and can happily say that it’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. The quality and craftsmanship is on point and still holding strong, the AMCU material is spot on and it’s an all round perfect belt, both for tactical use and as an every wear
Be careful guys! The new production versions (since a few months apparently and therefore currently in 2025) of the AOR1 Gen2 sets (pants and combat shirts) are no longer the same as before! The quality of all the parts is no longer as good/robust/resistant and it is no longer in line with the Crye as before: the tone of the AOR1 has changed; for the pants the brown outline of the knees at the front (which is however a mythical and typical visual aspect of DEVGRU operators) is no longer wide enough (unlike before and on the real Crye therefore)...; still at the level of the pants the waist closure scratch is no longer slightly inclined as before and as on the real Crye; Still on the pants, we can also add that the knee height adjustment bands located in the pockets are no longer beige and solid as before and as on the real Crye (now it's a thin black band and a less solid buckle); I'll also talk a little about the combat shirts: the part of the beige fabric (without your AOR1) is really very thin and not very resistant (so much so that one can wonder if there is really cotton?) always in comparison to before and to the real Crye...
Anyway, I'm not going to list everything, but be careful before buying from now on because the new production versions are no longer like before! You absolutely must know this! (I'm deliberately attaching images taken with gears from previous versions and the new current versions so you can make up your own mind). The only positive aspect is replacing the "Crye" inscription on the gears with "Shekkin" (not everyone will like it, but it's a matter of law and respect for genuine Crye productions). I don't understand this regression of Shekkin... Changing the inscription on the labels is fine, but why change all the other things that made Shekkin the best reproductions of sets/gears in AOR1 Gen2?! For my part, it's a terrible disappointment and you absolutely must know this before ordering because Shekkin no longer has old/previous versions...
No, currently in 2025, Shekkin no longer seems to be "the good deal" for a DEVGRU recreation in AOR1 Gen2...
Please, Shekkin, go back to previous productions because I had immense respect for your work. You need to warn customers and question yourself from now on!

Highly recommend some type of tubes cummerbund over the velcro. These feel mostly smooth taking on and off, one seems to stick just slightly but I don’t feel worried pulling it harder until it loosens a bit.
The mag flap works great, bungees are a little bit tight to start but they’re easy to loosen to your preference. Interfaces perfectly with my Shekkin JPC 2.0
It's really great equipment ever!
I find out like this dump pouch!
It's a well made replica! It looks just like the real thing and is awesome👍
The best quality replica!
Looks just like the real thing!
Awesome👍
The truth is I really liked it, I highly recommend it for its price and quality.
I don't know if you know this but Shekkin has recently changed its production of its Navy custom pants AOR1 Gen2 and Navy custom combat shirt AOR1 Gen2. And unfortunately, it's mostly for the "worst"... The only change that could be considered good and normal is finally putting the inscription "Shekkin" instead of "Crye" (which will avoid confusion). But everything else, compared to the old production version, is unfortunately no longer as good:
- New AOR1 tone that resembles that of other less good reproduction brands.
- The quality of all the parts has become much less good and robust (therefore less resistant).
- The brown knee contour is theoretically quite wide, but in their new productions they have made it smaller (while this is such an important visual aspect when you want a good visual reproduction because it's a typical DEVGRU aspect of the AOR1 Gen2!). And it's not simply a size question !
- We must also mention a "new system" for adjusting the knee height in the pants pockets: before it was exactly like Crye with a beige strap and a fairly solid black buckle, but now it's a thinner black strap and a black buckle (still) but much less good quality and which doesn't really hold the height.
- To stay on the pants, we can also mention the waistband closure Velcro which is no longer slightly inclined as before and which therefore no longer conforms to Crye's reproduction.
Regarding the combat shirt, we can also mention the significantly lower quality of the beige part of the combat shirt, which is no longer made of cotton like before (it's a really soft fabric and therefore much less durable...).
For resume, I'm not going to list everything, but there are so many things that no longer conform to a good reproduction of Crye as they used to do... Be careful because you have to be aware of it now ! And they no longer have old/previous versions in stock. They had talked about modifications to adjust their sizes to those of the Crye, but they didn't mention all these changes, which are a real regression/decadence (I think). I'll let you judge for yourselves if you wish, but keep all this in mind for the Navy custom pants AOR1 Gen2 and the Navy custom combat shirts AOR1 Gen2! While Shekkin was certainly the best reproduction for affordable prices! I don't know what happened, but it's a disappointment if you want to buy details now (in 2025) faithful reproductions... Now, no Shekkin no longer seems to be the "good deal"... And I'm terribly disappointed because I have immense respect for everything they've done !
Please Shekkin go back to the old productions !
