Real military for everyday wear BRITISH This jacket is based on the original fleece jacket used by the ARMY. The jacket has been updated to be reversible, making it even more versatile.
It combines the functionality of a military jacket with the ease of a fashion item for everyday use.
J&S FRANKLIN EQUIPMENT The company was founded in London in 1946 by two young men. One of the founders had been a pilot during WW2.
Using connections from their military experience, the company has continued to grow as a manifestation of military products and now has branches in Europe, America and South East Asia. We continue to supply governments, MOD, NATO and private security and defence organisations in the UK and around the world, and in particular we have had a major contractor relationship with the UK Military of Defence for over 40 years.
Our product range is extensive, ranging from military shelters, tents and camping products to uniforms, clothing and equipment.
Great functionality on the front and back The fleece side is made by the same factory that makes Patagonia products. The fleece side is made by the same factory that makes Patagonia products, and is an ethical fabric made from recycled polyester.
Lightweight, stretchy, warm and breathable.
The nylon side is made of high density woven nylon tussar. It is water repellent and breathable while remaining supple without coating.
Considered silhouette balance Generous body width and raglan sleeves around the shoulders for a stress-free fit.
The fleece jacket is normally used as a mid-layer, but we have balanced the silhouette to make it easier to use as an outer layer, while still maintaining its mid-layer qualities.
Drawcords at the hem keep the cold out, but allow you to alter the silhouette to your liking.
Inherited but well-balanced The details of the original jacket are retained, with a ribbed neck and cuffs, pocket placement and drawcord hem. The ribbed neck and cuffs, the placement of the pockets and the drawcord at the hem are just a few of the details that will appeal to military enthusiasts.
The hem pockets are large and easy to use, and only the fleece side has a zip.
Sublimation of real military items into fashion can sometimes result in features and details that are too over-specified for everyday use, but here the details and design have been carefully balanced to create an apparel product.
