Do yourself a favor…..

For me this is the holy grail of jackets. The quality is off the charts. While the fabric is thick and robust the shoulder gussets allow a great range of movement. It’s fun finding a use for all of the pockets. All American made is a bonus. The downside is I’m gonna have to find an excuse to buy one in black as well. I got the army green. Just can’t say enough about this coat.

Awesome jacket!

This is my 4th jacket from Kitanica. Love all of them. The quality, workmanship and fit is perfect. Yes, the jacket is expensive but there are a lot more expensive jackets from famous makers that are made where? If you guess China, you are right. Those companies charge us tons of money for a product that cost them peanuts. I am sorry but I love America and I support American companies as much as I can. We all should! America first!

One year of range/trail use--still Awesome

I've had the Mark IV in Ranger Green for a little over a year and it remains awesome! Contrary to what another reviewer said, I have had no issues regulating body temperature...not sure why the difference other than I usually wear a long-sleeve cotton t-shirt and/or hoody under the jacket. I'm 6'3",190 pounds and the jacket is a large-long...perfect size for me. I live in the swampy, humid area of NW Florida. I wear this jacket in 60-degree or less temps (jacket and coat weather). I've worn it rolling on the ground firing battle rifles and the jacket performs flawlessly. Its weight and ruggedness enables the jacket to absorb .308/7.62x51 M1A recoil extremely well. I was a little worried that all the hot brass flying around and landing on me might damage the nylon, but it hasn't. I don't wear it near campfires because I've got another nylon jacket with tiny burns in it from fire embers and I don't want that to happen to this jacket...not that it would...I just don't risk it. This jacket is perfect at the range, in the backcountry hiking and anywhere you feel comfortable wearing it. It does stand out because of its tailored, tactical design, so be prepared to get some attention when you wear it.
