Variable density insulation adapts to activity intensity
Military clothing often gets boiled down to clichs, but the D-43 reminds you why it worked in the first place. Weve taken the blueprint of the venerable M-43 field jacket, a cornerstone of mid-century military design, and elevated it in true Drakes fashion.
Weve cut it from a hefty 16.5oz Japanese fabric, faithfully reproduced from an obscure Bulgarian military cloth. Its got the right details - four generous patch-and-flap gusset pockets, corozo buttons, a throat latch, an internal drawstring waist with leather pig nose stoppers - without tipping into costume. Think of it as one of those rare jackets that can take a beating, carry a story, and still feel quietly refined.
