Description
This is a Gore-Tex jacket from Adventure Tech. This is similar to the USGI cold weather Parkas but lighter, more comfortable, and a lot cooler. It includes a stowable hood and closes up with a zipper and a button snap closure storm flap. The cuffs are adjustable via hook and loop. The inside of the jacket is a very soft material, with a small zippered pocket on the chest. The outside is Gore-Tex with two large waist pockets that close via button snap. There is a drawstring along the bottom of the jacket to keep a tight fit around your waist. Overall this jacket is a great improvement over the USGI parka, and a great lightweight rain jacket option.
Features:
- Woodland Camo Pattern – Created and issued from 1981 onwards. Based on the ERDL camo patterns used throughout the Vietnam War and afterwards, specifically the 2nd pattern ERDL, RDF ERDL. The biggest change over earlier ERDL patterns was the enlargement of the patterns and shapes found in ERDL. The colors were also the same with light green, dark green and brown being used. Black would be used in twig shapes across the base colors. Woodland Camo is commonly referred to just as BDU or M81. M81 is an unofficial name for Woodland Camo that comes from its adoption date, 1981. It was used across the US Military till individual service branches replaced it with modern camo patterns.
