The longer it is worn, the richer and more nuanced its appearance becomes.Meticulously Considered DetailsThe neckline features a high snap-button design, while a drawcord allows the hood fit to be adjusted, helping to block out wind.The front is constructed with a snap-button and zip storm flap to prevent wind penetration. A practical double zipper allows for subtle changes in silhouette.Large pockets are placed on both sides, each spacious enough to hold items such as a 500ml bottle with ease.The cuffs are equipped with adjusters; cinching them creates a well-defined silhouette that contrasts neatly with the volume of the sleeves.The drawcord at the waist allows you to adjust the silhouette—an appreciated detail. The hem features an M-51–inspired fishtail design, and like the waist, its shape can be adjusted with a drawcord.Originally designed by the U.S. military in 1951, this piece has been updated to suit a modern style. The slightly shortened length and relaxed silhouette blend seamlessly into a wide range of outfits, offering excellent versatility. Suitable not only for casual wear, it also pairs well with suits and tailored jackets.
