Tin Cloth Insulated Packer Coat

Description

Our heaviest-duty insulated coat.

This reissue of our archival Packer Coat is a heavy-duty variation of the mainstay coat trusted by ranchers and backcountry outfitters for decades. This insulated version combines the legendary toughness and weather protection of the original with the warmth of PrimaLoft®. This reliable insulation was developed to meet the needs of our military in cold-weather training and campaigns.

This insulated coat is made with our signature Tin Cloth that earned its reputation for outstanding weather resistance and durability in the rain-soaked forests of the Pacific Northwest. This heavily waxed canvas features an exceptionally tight weave that’s virtually impenetrable to briars and thorns, and withstands the abuse of constant abrasion. The PrimaLoft® insulation was developed when the U.S. Army needed a warm solution that could mimic goose down’s light weight and packability, and also insulate when wet. PrimaLoft’s ultrafine polyester fibers maintain their loft when wet, retaining 98% of their heat-trapping ability. Together, these legendary materials form a layer of protection as tough and warm as can be made.

The front and back shoulders are protected by an additional layer of Tin Cloth for maximum water resistance. The front and back are covered with our signature Cruiser pocket array which includes four cargo pockets and a full-width, pass-through rear pocket. The shawl collar is lined with thick 100% wool and extends to ear height for warmth in biting wind. Genuine horn buttons secure the front and the removable throat latch. Inner-sleeve cuffs are rib-knit to seal in the warmth.
