The L4 Field Jacket was designed for pure functionality. Smart materials and a purpose-built design guarantee the best possible comfort regardless of the type of fighting and/or sustainment load you carry. This is a great alternative to the Finnish military-issue jacket, which suffers from many compromises since it was designed to double up as parade wear. Now available in the supreme camo pattern, IanPat! You can now preorder this product, with an estimated arrival in late April. Yes, this is a real product and definitely a limited edition – once the lot is sold, that's it!

Forget about those MultiCams and M05s already – brace yourself for the supremely historical and ultimately versatile camo pattern, IanPat!

IanPat

Together with Ian from Forgotten Weapons, we have developed this unique and innovative camouflage pattern that suits all terrains and needs.

Functionality and easy maintenance

We haven’t sacrificed simple reliability for functionality, the L4 Field Jacket is wear-resistant, easily cared for, and - when need be - also easily repaired. The materials are simple but functional. All buttons are Canadian-style slotted buttons and wear-prone details, such as hook-and-loop fasteners are designed to be easily replaced if needed. The L4 Field Uniform stands for simple functionality, the stuff that you learn to value when you’re out there for extended periods.

Does the zipper feel difficult to close at first? This is due to the sliders not being fully in their bottom position. Make sure you´re not pressing the lower slider upwards, the easiest trick is to put a little downwards pressure on the top lock and it will push the bottom one into correct place too.

Designed for all-year-round use

When it comes to comfort, the most important detail apart from the quick-drying fabric is the minimalistic torso: no buttons, no zippers, no press studs, and no cord locks that could cause discomfort when pressed against by armor and load-bearing gear. The armpit vents ease thermal load resulting in less sweating and less sweating means less freezing in cold weather. The protective collar and longer back hem offer added protection from the elements. These details extend the L4 Field Jacket´s use far beyond the warm summer months.

Four simply sensible pockets

The L4 Field Jacket has no pockets that could under any circumstances be more useless than useful. There are no hem pockets: in a hem of this length, they would just be squeezed beneath body armor or rucksack hip belts. The chest pockets are flat and open up from the outer sides, this means they are somewhat accessible when wearing body armor and the zippers won't cause discomfort under hard armor plates. Both sleeves feature zippered upper arm pockets, these are always accessible no matter what kind of fighting/sustainment load you´re using.

Other neat details include the reinforced elbows with pad pockets. The hook-and-loop cuffs offer enough adjustment range to sit tight around any wrist. There are no seams or stitches on top of the shoulders, a small but nice detail that further adds to the overall wearer comfort.
