R19 Y-3 Gill Jacket Waratah Nylon
A loose fitting, boxy, button front hooded jacket cut from MAN-TLE’s signature heat compressed, water resistant, nylon in waratah red. Features a low profile brimmed hood, oversized hand pockets with extended slashed openings, and the classic military-style button closure. The generous fit combines with the structure of the cloth to produce a strong, structured silhouette that will soften with age. Constructed using french seams throughout for MAN-TLE’s trademark durable finish.
MAN-TLE’s nylon cloth is produced in Fukui in close collaboration with a local mill. The cloth is boiled in a chloride solution, causing it to shrink permanently, producing the characteristic crinkled surface and a tighter weave that imparts structural water resistance. Both the technique and appearance of the cloth pay homage to traditional techniques used in the production of Japanese Obi belts wherein silk is boiled in sea water.
