ScentLok is going all-in on Realtree's new XT-3 pattern, dropping it onto more than half of its latest product introductions. This new look is headlined by the Savanna Fuse, Ridge and BE:1 collections.

Visual Chaos

The Realtree team deployed an abstract foundation built on geometric lines, layered organic textures and strategically placed color breaks. It actively shatters the human outline through sharp angles and fractured shapes that mimic the visual chaos found in diverse environments. By pairing this adaptable, multi-location pattern with ScentLok's fabrics, the collaboration gives hunters an advantage that adapts to changing light, distance and habitat conditions.

"Putting a Realtree pattern on more than half of our new lineup isn't a small decision," said Steve Allie, ScentLok's marketing director. "Bill Jordan and his team have spent decades figuring out how to make hunters vanish. By combining their new XT-3 design with our technical fabrics, we're giving guys a system that covers them visually and stops their scent from giving them away. It's just a damn good combination."

The pattern is engineered specifically for hunters who demand both the depth of traditional timber and the raw performance of modern macro-disruption. By breaking up the human outline across varying distances, heights and light conditions, it thrives whether pinned against a mature treestand bark matrix or buried deep in a dense ground blind.

The Realtree XT-3 pattern spans everything from early-season lightweight apparel and next-to-skin base layers to late-season outerwear and essential accessories. Learn more about the collection at scentlok.com.
