[~2010's] Royal Air Force MK4 GORE-TEX Cold Weather Flying Jacket Size.5

2013 payableThis is the RAF's "MK4 Gore-Tex Cold Weather Flying Jacket."

The Royal Air Force (RAF) is the air force division of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and was founded in 1918 as the world's oldest independent air force.

Its establishment was established during World War I by integrating the Army Air Corps (RFC) and Naval Air Corps (RNAS), and from then on, it showed the world the nature of military aviation as an entity that preceded the concept of "securing air superiority."

In World War II, RAF wasHe launched a massive air battle in Battle of Britain, preventing Nazi Germany from invading the mainland.
This battle is still talked about today as a historical example of how the Air Force alone defeated the crisis of the nation's existence.

Even after the war, he played a part in the nuclear deterrent forces throughout the Cold War, and demonstrated his air operational capabilities in the Falklands conflict, the Gulf War, the Kosovo conflict, and the Afghan war.
In addition, modern capabilities are being strengthened, including unmanned aircraft operations and cyberspace response, and are recognized as an ever-evolving Air Force.

The current RAF possesses a wide range of equipment including the Typhoon strategic bomber, the Atlas transport aircraft, the Sentinel early warning aircraft, and the Voyager air refuel aircraft, and is an important position in international security as an air force that combines readiness and diversity in NATO and the UN-led missions.

Introducing the "MK4 GORE-TEX Cold Weather Flying Jacket", a classic item in European military, from the Royal Air Force, which is known as the world's oldest independent air force.

The "MK4 GORE-TEX Cold Weather Flying Jacket" is the successor to the "MK3 Cold Weather Aircrew Jacket", a regular flight jacket of the Royal Air Force, which has been used as standard equipment for about 50 years.

It is said that the switch has been made since 2010, and instead of the conventional MK3 (twill weave cotton material), it has been changed to the higher-performance "GORE-TEX" material.

This is an extremely well-made military jacket with its practicality unique to Air Force specifications and careful design that is carefully crafted down to the smallest detail.

The neck is equipped with a chin strap, which increases wind resistance, and can also be arranged to emphasize the rugged atmosphere by wearing it as a stand-up collar.

It also has a zippered rear collar with a built-in retractable hood, providing functional details that can handle sudden changes in the weather, while also providing a smart finish that doesn't make you feel the same in the outside.

The shoulders come with a military-like epaulette (class-tall loop).

The hand warmer pocket cut diagonally at the waist has a zipper, allowing you to warm your hands as well as store valuables.
It is designed to balance convenience and security.

Furthermore, there is a pen pocket sewn on the left sleeve, which symbolizes the functionality unique to Air Force uniforms.

A D-ring is attached to the front, and it has a double structure with a button closure and a zip zipper.
The double-layered design boasts high wind resistance and durability, making it a logical design that shuts out the intrusion of outside air.

The zip slider uses a metal zipper made by YKK, providing smooth operation and durability.

On the inside, there is also a beautiful label that also serves as a sign of official supplies.
The tag also shows the word "NOV 2013", so this is an individual provided in November 2013.

The contrast between the short length and the moderately wide body width gives a firm contour.
While there is room around the shoulders, there is a naturally tightened line around the hem, so there is no unnecessary swelling throughout.

The sleeves are three-dimensionally structured to ensure a solid range of motion of the arms.
The Velcro straps on the cuffs allow you to freely adjust the fit, allowing you to optimize the balance of your wear depending on the volume of the inner layer.

The body lines are just straight, but the patterns are applied everywhere to create a natural three-dimensional look when worn.
It also makes your waist look higher, and when you incorporate it into your styling, it will give you a more stylish look.

The fabric is made of "GORE-TEX" fabric, which is the biggest feature of this individual.

Gore-Tex is a high-performance material that has been enhanced to the utmost by increasing the three elements of waterproofing, breathable and windproofing.
It completely blocks rain and wind from the surface, while also lets moisture escape inside, maintaining a comfortable wearing environment even in bad weather.

Due to its overwhelming protection and comfort, this material, which is used in military and outdoor wear all over the world, is also a testament to its trust.

The surface of the fabric is highly dense, with extremely fine grid-like woven patterns.
This woven structure increases wear resistance, while also providing a heavy appearance and a smooth feel.

The color is an olive green color with a different impression from the MK3.

It is different from military green, which tends to look monotonous, and has a subtle nuance depending on the way the light hits and angle.
This tone gives the viewer a quiet and powerful impression, and while still rugged, it has an urban and sophisticated impression.

The resonance of functional beauty and tranquility created by materials and colors.

It goes beyond the genres of outdoor and military, and has a highly finished look that naturally fits into the modern fashion scene.

The matte olive green color enhances the functional beauty unique to Gore-Tex, and the ruggedness of military style and modern refinement are beautifully coexist.

Size notation is "5"
I think it falls in the Japanese size range "M to L".

Looking at the actual measurements, it is a golden size that suits the Japanese body type, so I think it can be worn by a wide range of people with a wide range of body types.
It looks great whether you wear it in the perfect size or the oversized size.

There are signs of wear such as dirt, but there are no major damage that can cause problems with wearing it, so I think you can still wear it.

Among the many military jackets, the "MK4 GORE-TEX Cold Weather Flying Jacket" is a masterpiece that combines modern features and historical background.

The update to "GORE-TEX" material, which has dramatically improved waterproof, windproof and breathable properties while inheriting the perfection of the previous model "MK3", has significantly improved practicality and comfort.

Despite having the traditional backbone of the RAF (Rural Air Force), the silhouette and texture of the urban refinement now go beyond military terms and stand out as a stark contrast to modern fashion.

If you are looking for authentic military wear, don't miss this opportunity.
