MAN-TLE Gill Jacket Black Mastershield

MAN-TLE Gill Jacket Black Mastershield, heavy duty waterproof cotton hooded jacket developed by MAN-TLE in Australia.

Hooded jacket with a loose, slightly cropped fit. Self-lined front and hood, enlarged slot buttons threaded onto seatbelt tape, slashed pockets that extend from the armholes. Made in Japan.
The cloth is 100% Giza cotton in a  dry, matte handle. Developed by the British Air Force in the late 19th century, the design of this cloth was later recommissioned in Japan by the Japanese Coast Guard. Superfine yarn is woven at maximum density, when exposed to water the yarns swell, becoming impermeable and waterproof without the use of any coatings. Lightweight and breathable, suitable for year-round wear.

Founded in 2015 by Aida Kim and Larz Harry, MAN-TLE is an Australian clothing label produced by Heavy Weight Clothing Pty Ltd, a design and fabrication company specialising in the production of textiles, garments, accessories and objects with expert Japanese manufacturers.

MAN-TLE garments prioritise practicality, ingenuity and durability. Their pieces are constructed from a signature MAN-TLE cloth, purpose-made in collaboration with family-run factories in some of Japan's oldest textile regions.
