As comfortable as it is unconventional, J41 is a jacket / sweat shirt / wetsuit hybrid with a unique dual zip system. Drop-in zip for pullover donning and doffing. Escape Zip for rapid vehicular exits. Holster pockets, zip lanyard garage, and adjustable / zipable cuffs are use driven details that bring balance to a design leaning towards the far edge of forward.
We are not hunters, but we appreciate the reduced audio signature of this hunting specific Gore-Tex® microfiber fabric with Paclite® product technology. Its exterior face is soft to the touch, and its slick interior backer glides over your inner layers smooth and silent.

Canted Interops™ zipper. Center front Escape Zipper™. Forcelock™. JacketSling™ and sling compatible interior pockets. We could keep listing parts and descriptors, but if words could properly convey J43-GT then we wouldn't have had to make it. They can't though, so you'll just have to find one and try it on.
